Question
The coefficient of linear expansion ′ α ′ of the material a rod of length l0 varies with absolute temperature as α = aT - bT2 where where a & b are constants.The linear expansion of the rod when heated from T1 to T2 = 2T1 is :-
Options
A.
B.
C.
D.None of these.
Solution
∵ dl = αl0dT ∴ ᐃl =
dl =
(aT - bT2) l0dT∵ dl = αl0dT ∴ ᐃl =
dl =
(aT - bT2) l0dT
