The length of a metallic rod is $5 \, m$ at $0^{\circ}C$ and becomes $5.01 \, m$ on heating up to $100^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is:

Solids expand on heating because

Two rods of different metals have coefficients of linear expansion $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ respectively. Their respective lengths are $L_1$ and $L_2$. At all temperatures,$(L_2 - L_1)$ remains the same. The correct relation is:

$A$ cylinder has a piston at a temperature of $30^{\circ} C$. There is an all-round clearance of $0.08 \ mm$ between the piston and the cylinder wall. If the internal diameter of the cylinder is $15 \ cm$,what is the temperature at which the piston will fit into the cylinder exactly (in $^{\circ} C$)? $(\alpha_p = 1.6 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$ and $\alpha_c = 1.2 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C)$

$A$ meter scale made of steel reads accurately at $25^{\circ} C$. Suppose in an experiment an accuracy of $0.06 \,mm$ in $1 \,m$ is required, the range of temperature in which the experiment can be performed with this meter scale is (Coefficient of linear expansion of steel is $11 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$)
