$A$ non-isotropic solid metal cube has coefficients of linear expansion as:
$5 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$ along the $x$-axis and $5 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ} C$ along the $y$ and the $z$-axis. If the coefficient of volume expansion of the solid is $C \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ} C$,then the value of $C$ is:

$A$ clock pendulum made of invar has a period of $0.5 \, s$ at $20^{\circ} C$. If the clock is used in a climate where the temperature averages to $30^{\circ} C$, how much time does the clock lose in each oscillation? (For invar, $\alpha = 9 \times 10^{-7} /{ }^{\circ} C$, $g = \text{constant}$)

$A$ rod of length $2 \ m$ at $0^\circ C$ has a linear expansion coefficient $\alpha = (3x + 2) \times 10^{-6} \ ^\circ C^{-1}$,where $x$ is the distance (in $cm$) from one end of the rod. Find the length of the rod at $20^\circ C$ in meters.

An iron tyre is to be fitted onto a wooden wheel $1 \, m$ in diameter. The diameter of the tyre is $6 \, mm$ smaller than that of the wheel. The tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of ........ $^oC$ (the coefficient of cubical expansion of iron is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \, ^oC^{-1}$).

$A$ uniform copper rod of length $50 \,cm$ and diameter $3.0 \,mm$ is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface at $20^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \,K^{-1}$ and Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The copper rod is heated to $100^{\circ} C$. The tension developed in the copper rod is .......... $\times 10^3 \,N$.

The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.33 \%$ when its temperature is raised by $50^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is
