The length of a side of a metallic cube at ..

Question 1 Report

The length of a side of a metallic cube at 20oC is 5.0cm. Given that the linear expansivity of the metal is 4.0 x 10-5k-1, find the volume of the cube at 120oC .

126.50cm3

126.25cm3

126.00cm3

125.00cm3

Answer Details

Y = $\frac{V_{2} - V_{1}}{V_{1} \times θ}$

3 x 4 x 10-5 = $\frac{V_{2} - 125}{125 \times (120 - 20)}$

V2 = 126.50cm3
