The linear expansivity of glass is . Real expansivity of mercury is . The fraction of the whole volume of a glass vessel that has to be filled with mercury in order that the volume of the vessel not occupied by mercury may be the same at all temperatures is


The densities of a liquid at and are respectively and . A specific gravity bottle is filled with of the liquid at upto the brim and it is heated to . Then the mass of the liquid expelled in grams is (coefficient of linear expansion of glass)


A metal rod is fixed rigidly at two ends so as to prevent its thermal expansion. If , and respectively denote the length of the rod, coefficient of linear thermal expansion and Young’s modulus of its material, then for an increase in temperature of the rod by , the longitudinal stress developed in the rod is
