    A clock which keeps correct time at\[{{20}^{o}}C\], is subjected to\[{{40}^{o}}C\]. If coefficient of linear expansion of the pendulum is\[12\times {{10}^{-6}}{{/}^{o}}C\], then how much will it gain or loss in time?

    A) \[5\,\,s/day\]                   

    B) \[10.3\,\,s/day\]

    C)  \[20.6\,\,s/day\]                            

    D)  \[20\,\,\min /day\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    As,\[{{T}_{2}}={{T}_{1}}\sqrt{{{I}_{2}}/{{I}_{1}}}\]                 \[={{T}_{1}}\times \sqrt{\frac{{{l}_{1}}[\{1+12\times {{10}^{-6}}\times (40-20)\}]}{{{l}_{1}}}}\]                 \[={{T}_{1}}\sqrt{1+240\times {{10}^{-6}}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{T}_{2}}-{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{1}}}={{(1+240\times {{10}^{-6}})}^{1/2}}-1\]                 \[=120\times {{10}^{-6}}\] or            \[{{T}_{2}}-{{T}_{1}}=120\times {{10}^{-6}}\times (24\times 60\times 60)s\]                 \[=10.36\,\,s/day\] It will be a loss as\[{{T}_{2}}>{{T}_{1}}\].
