A hole of diameter is drilled in a metal sheet at . The linear expansion of metal is . The diameter of the hole when the temperature is raised to , is equal to
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Change in the temperature is ∆T=230-30=200°C. When the sheet is heated it will expand, thermal expansion is given by, L=L01+α∆T⇒L=5×1+2×10-5×200=5.02 cm
