JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 10.1, thermonetry,thermal expansion and calorimetry

Each side of a box made of metal sheet in cubic shape is \('a'\) at room temperature \('T'\), the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal sheet is \(^{\prime} \alpha^{\prime}\). The metal sheet is heated uniformly, by a small temperature \(\Delta T\), so that its new temperature is \(T +\Delta T\). Calculate the increase in the volume of the metal box.

  1. A \(3 a^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)
  2. B \(4 a ^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)
  3. C \(4 \pi a ^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)
  4. D \(\frac{4}{3} \pi a ^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3 a^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Delta V = V \gamma \Delta T\) \(\Delta V =3 a ^{3} \alpha \Delta T\)
