The value of the coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is \(5\times10^{-4}\) K^-1. The fractional change in the density of glycerin for a temperature increase of \(40^\circ \mathrm{C}\) will be:

A copper rod of \(88\) cm and an aluminium rod of an unknown length have an equal increase in their lengths independent of an increase in temperature. The length of the aluminium rod is:
\(\left(\alpha_{Cu}= 1.7\times10^{-5}~\text{K}^{-1}~\text{and}~\alpha_{Al}= 2.2\times10^{-5}~\text{K}^{-1}\right)\)
1. \(68~\text{cm}\)
2. \(6.8~\text{cm}\)
3. \(113.9~\text{cm}\)
4. \(88~\text{cm}\)

A pendulum clock runs faster by \(5\) s per day at \(20^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\) and goes slow by \(10\) s per day at \(35^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\). It shows the correct time at a temperature of:
1. \(27.5^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
2. \(25^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
3. \(30^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)
4. \(33^{\circ}\mathrm {C}\)

Two rods, one made of aluminium and the other made of steel, having initial lengths \(l_1\) and \(l_2\) are connected together to form a single rod of length $l_1+l_2$. The coefficient of linear expansion for aluminium and steel are ${\alpha }_a$ and ${\alpha }_s$ respectively. If the length of each rod increases by the same amount when their temperature is raised by \(t^\circ \mathrm{C},\) then the ratio \(\frac{l_1}{l_1+l_2}\) is:
1. $\frac{{\alpha }_s}{{\alpha }_a}$

2. $\frac{{\alpha }_a}{{\alpha }_s}$

3. $\frac{{\alpha }_a}{{\alpha }_a+{\alpha }_s}$

4. $\frac{{\alpha }_s}{{\alpha }_a+{\alpha }_s}$

Two holes are cut into a metal sheet. The diameters of the two holes are \(d_1\) and \(d_2\) \((d_1>d_2).\) If the temperature of the metal sheet is increased, then which of the following distance increases?
