$A$ uniform metal rod is used as a bar pendulum. If the room temperature rises by $10^{\circ}C$,and the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal of the rod is $2 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$,the period of the pendulum will have a percentage increase of:

  • A
    $-2 \times 10^{-3} \%$
  • B
    $-1 \times 10^{-3} \%$
  • C
    $2 \times 10^{-3} \%$
  • D
    $1 \times 10^{-3} \%$

Two rods are joined between fixed supports as shown in the figure. The condition for no change in the total length of the system with an increase in temperature is given by:
($\alpha_1, \alpha_2$ = linear expansion coefficients,$A_1, A_2$ = cross-sectional areas of rods,$Y_1, Y_2$ = Young's moduli)

The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.24\%$ when its temperature is raised by $40^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is .......... $^{\circ}C^{-1}$.

$A$ metal ball initially at a pressure of $10^5 \ Pa$ is heated from $20^{\circ} C$ to $127^{\circ} C$ while keeping its volume constant. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $10^{-5} \ {^{\circ} C}^{-1}$ and the bulk modulus of the metal is $2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$. The final pressure inside the ball becomes:
