The difference in length between two rods $A$ and $B$ is $60 \ cm$ at all temperatures. If $\alpha_A = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$ and $\alpha_B = 27 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$,then the lengths of rod $A$ and rod $B$ at $0^{\circ}C$ are respectively:

  • A
    $\ell_{A} = 120 \ cm, \ell_{B} = 60 \ cm$.
  • B
    $\ell_{A} = 180 \ cm, \ell_{B} = 120 \ cm$.
  • C
    $\ell_{A} = 240 \ cm, \ell_{B} = 180 \ cm$.
  • D
    $\ell_{A} = 270 \ cm, \ell_{B} = 210 \ cm$.

$A$ piece of metal has a weight of $49 \ gm$ in air and $39 \ gm$ in a liquid of density $1.2 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ kept at $32^{\circ}C$. When the temperature of the liquid is raised to $42^{\circ}C$, the metal piece has a weight of $40 \ gm$. If the density of the liquid at $42^{\circ}C$ is $1.0 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$, then the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is:

$A$ simple pendulum made of a bob of mass $m$ and a metallic wire of negligible mass has a time period $2 \ s$ at $T = 0 \ ^oC$. If the temperature of the wire is increased and the corresponding change in its time period is plotted against its temperature,the resulting graph is a line of slope $S$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $\alpha$,then the value of $S$ is:
