A hole is drilled in a metal sheet. At \(27^{\circ} C\), the diameter of hole is 5 cm . When the sheet is heated to \(177^{\circ} C\), the change in the diameter of hole is \(d \times 10^{-3} cm\). The value of \(d\) will be ________ , if coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is \(1.6 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C\)

  1. A 12
  2. B 14
  3. C 16
  4. D 18
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 12

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(d _0\) at \(27^{\circ} C \& d_1\) at \(177^{\circ} C\) \(d _1= d _0(1+\alpha \Delta T )\) \(d _1- d _0=5 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-5} \times 150 cm\) \(=12 \times 10^{-3} cm\)
