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. \(88~\text{cm}\)

The coefficient of linear expansion of brass and steel rods are \(\alpha_1\) and \(\alpha_2\). Lengths of brass and steel rods are \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) respectively. If \((L_2-L_1)\) remains the same at all temperatures, which one of the following relations holds good?
1. \(\alpha_1L_2^2=\alpha_2L_1^2\)
2. \(\alpha_1^2L_2=\alpha_2^2L_1\)
3. \(\alpha_1L_1=\alpha_2L_2\)
4. \(\alpha_1L_2=\alpha_2L_1\)
