  • A
    The rod will expand freely.
  • B
    The rod will experience compressive stress and may bend.
  • C
    The rod will experience tensile stress.
  • D

Two rods,one of aluminum and another of steel,have initial lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$ respectively. They are joined together to form a single rod of length $(l_1 + l_2)$. If the coefficients of linear expansion for aluminum and steel are $\alpha_a$ and $\alpha_s$ respectively,and the increase in length for both rods is the same when the temperature of both is increased by $t \ ^\circ C$,then $\frac{l_1}{l_1 + l_2} = \dots$
