MCQ
Two metal rods have the same length at 0 degrees C but different coefficients of expansion. When both are heated equally, the rod with the larger coefficient:
Unit-7 Density and Temperature
A Becomes shorter
B Remains equal in length
C Is longer
D Bends
Explanation

Expansion is proportional to the coefficient of expansion, so the rod with the larger alpha becomes longer.
