Consider a rectangular sheet of solid material of length \(\ell=9 \mathrm{~cm}\) and width \(\mathrm{d}=4 \mathrm{~cm}\). The coefficient of linear expansion is \(\alpha=3.1 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\) at room temperature and one atmospheric pressure. The mass of sheet \(\mathrm{m}=0.1 \mathrm{~kg}\) and the specific heat capacity \(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{v}}=900 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\). If the amount of heat supplied to the material is \(8.1 \times 10^2 \mathrm{~J}\) then change in area of the rectangular sheet is :-

  1. A \(2.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  2. B \(3.0 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  3. C \(6.0 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
  4. D \(4.0 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~m}^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \Delta \mathrm{Q}=\mathrm{ms} \Delta \mathrm{T} \\ & 8.1 \times 10^2=0.1 \times 900 \times \Delta \mathrm{T} \\ & \Delta \mathrm{A}=\mathrm{A}_0 2 \alpha \Delta \mathrm{~T}=2.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}^2\end{aligned}\)
