Question

An aluminium measuring tape which is correct at 100C measures the length of a line as 80 cm at 50. If thermal coefficient of linear expansion of aluminium is of 2.50×105 perC the correct length of the line is
  1. 79.92 cm
  2. 79.68 cm
  3. 80.08cm
  4. 80.32 cm

A
80.08cm
B
79.92 cm
C
79.68 cm
D
80.32 cm
Solution
Verified by Toppr

L=L0(1+α0δ(T))
80=L0(1+(2.5×105)(50))
80=L0(0.99875)
L0= 80.1 cm
