प्रश्न

A steel tape 1m long is correctly calibrated for a temperature of 27.0 °C. The length of a steel rod measured by this tape is found to be 63.0 cm on a hot day when the temperature is 45.0 °C. What is the actual length of the steel rod on that day? What is the length of the same steel rod on a day when the temperature is 27.0 °C? Coefficient of linear expansion of steel = 1.20 × 10–5 K–1

उत्तर १

On a day when the temperature is 27 °C, the length of 1 cm division on the steel tape is exactly 1 cm, because the tape has been calibrated for 27 °C.When the temperature rises to 45 °C (that is, ΔT = 45 – 27 = 18 °C), the increase in the length of 1 cm division is Δl = αlΔT = (1.2 x 10-5C-1) x 1 cm x 18 °C = 0.000216 cm Therefore, the length of 1 cm division on the tape becomes 1.000216 cm at 45 °C. As the length of the steel rod is read to be 63.0 cm on the steel tape at 45 °C, the actual length of the rod at 45 °C is 63.0 x 1.000216 cm = 63.0136 cm The length of the same rod at 27 °C is 63.0 cm, because 1 cm mark on the steel tape is exactly 1 cm at 27 °C.

उत्तर २

Length of the steel tape at temperature T = 27°C, l = 1 m = 100 cm

At temperature T1 = 45°C, the length of the steel rod, l1 = 63 cm

Coefficient of linear expansion of steel, α = 1.20 × 10–5 K–1

Let l2 be the actual length of the steel rod and l' be the length of the steel tape at 45°C.

`l' = l + al(T-1- T)`

`:. l' = 100 + 1.20 xx 10^(-5) xx 100(45- 27)`

= 100.0216 cm

Hence, the actual length of the steel rod measured by the steel tape at 45°C can be calculated as:

`l_2= 100.0216/100 xx 63 = 63.0136 cm`

Therefore, the actual length of the rod at 45.0°C is 63.0136 cm. Its length at 27.0°C is 63.0 cm.
