JEE Main & Advanced Physics Thermometry, Calorimetry & Thermal Expansion Question Bank Thermal Expansion

  • question_answer
    If on heating liquid through 80°C, the mass expelled is (1/100)th of mass still remaining, the coefficient of apparent expansion of liquid is                                                   [RPMT 2004]

    A) 1.25 ´ 10?4/°C                                  

    B) 12.5 ´ 10?4/°C

    C) 1.25 ´ 10?5/°C                                  

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{\gamma }_{\text{app}\text{.}}}=\frac{\text{Mass expelled}}{\text{Mass remained}\times \text{ }\Delta T}\] \[=\frac{x/100}{x\times 80}=\frac{1}{8000}=1.25\times {{10}^{-4}}/{}^\circ C\]
