$A$ pendulum clock shows the correct time at $20^{\circ}C$. During summer days,when the temperature rises to $40^{\circ}C$,what will be the time change in the clock in one day (in $.64$)? (Given: $\alpha = 10^{-5} {^{\circ}C}^{-1}$)

$A$ sphere floats on a liquid whose volume does not change with temperature. At temperatures $t_1$ and $t_2$,the fractions $f_1$ and $f_2$ of the sphere are submerged in the liquid,respectively. What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the sphere?

$A$ glass flask contains some mercury at room temperature. It is found that at different temperatures the volume of air inside the flask remains the same. If the volume of mercury in the flask is $300 \, cm^3$,then the volume of the flask is ........ $cm^3$. (Given that the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is $\gamma_{Hg} = 1.8 \times 10^{-4} (^{\circ}C)^{-1}$ and the coefficient of linear expansion of glass is $\alpha_{glass} = 9 \times 10^{-6} (^{\circ}C)^{-1}$)

Three rods of equal lengths are joined to form an equilateral triangle $ABC$. $D$ is the mid-point of $AB$. The coefficient of linear expansion is $\alpha_1$ for the material of rod $AB$ and $\alpha_2$ for the material of rods $AC$ and $BC$. If the distance $DC$ remains constant for small changes in temperature, then:

$A$ thin copper wire of length $l$ metre increases in length by $2\%$ when heated through $10^{\circ}C$. The percentage increase in area when a square copper sheet of side $l$ metre is heated through $10^{\circ}C$ is:

The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.30 \%$,when its temperature is raised by $50^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is
