The linear expansivity of brass is 2 x 10
-5C
-1. If the volume of a piece of brass is 15.00cm
3 at 0
0C, What is the volume at 100
oC?
-
A.
16.03cm3
-
B.
16.00cm3
-
C.
15.09cm3
-
D.
15cm3
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
linear expansivity = \(\frac {V_2 - V_1}{V_1 {\times} {\Delta}{\theta}}\)
3 x 2 x 10-5 =\(\frac {V_2 - 15}{15 {\times} (100 - 0)}\)
V2 = 15.09cm3
