The change (ΔL) of the original length of a solid due to a change (ΔT) of temperature is given by which equation?
The change (ΔL) of the original length of a solid due to a change (ΔT) of temperature is given by which equation?
- $ riangle L = L - \alpha - \triangle T$
- $ riangle L = L \div \alpha \div \triangle T$
- $ riangle L = L \cdot \alpha \cdot \triangle T$ (correct)
- $ riangle L = L + \alpha + \triangle T$
The displacement of rod A is given by which equation?
The displacement of rod A is given by which equation?
- $x = (\alpha_A - \alpha_B) \cdot \triangle T$ (correct)
- $x = (\alpha_A + \alpha_B) \cdot \triangle T$
- $x = (\alpha_B - \alpha_A) \cdot \triangle T$
- $x = (\alpha_A / \alpha_B) \cdot \triangle T$
