$A$ blacksmith fixes a circular iron frame on the wooden wheel of a bullock cart. The diameters of the wooden wheel and the circular iron frame are $5.012 \ m$ and $5 \ m$ respectively at $27^{\circ} C$. The temperature (in $^{\circ} C$) to which the iron ring must be heated so as to fit the wooden wheel is (Coefficient of linear expansion of iron $= 1.2 \times 10^{-5} \ ^{\circ} C^{-1}$).

The gap between any two rails, each of length $l$ laid on a railway track, is equal to $x$ at $27\,^{\circ}C$. When the temperature rises to $40\,^{\circ}C$, the gap closes up. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the rail is $\alpha$, the length $l$ of a rail at $27\,^{\circ}C$ is:

$A$ uniform metal bar of length $10 \ m$ with a crack at its midpoint is clamped between two rigid supports. The bar buckles upward due to a temperature rise of $40^{\circ} C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $2.5 \times 10^{-6} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$,the maximum displacement of the midpoint of the bar is: (in $cm$)
