Question 34

Multiple Choice

The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is 17×106 K117 \times 10 ^ { - 6 } \mathrm {~K} ^ { - 1 } and that of steel is 12×106K112 \times 10 ^ { - 6 } K ^ { - 1 } At 12C12 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } a steel rod has a diameter of 2.540 cm and a copper pipe has a diameter of 2.536 cm. If they
are heated together to a higher temperature, which one of the following quantities is closest to the
common temperature at which the steel rod will fit snugly in the copper pipe?


A) 350C350 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
B) 330C330 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
C) 340C340 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
D) 310C310 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
E) 380C380 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }
