A brass cube of side 10cm is heated through 30°C. If the linear expansivity of brass is 2.0 × I0\(^{-5}\) K-1 , what is the increase in its volume?

A.

0.06 cm3

B.

0.18cm3

C.

0.60cm3

D.

1.20cm3

E.

1.80cm3

Correct answer is E

cubic expansivity and γ = 3α. → 3 * 2.0 × I0\(^{-5}\)

cubic expansivity = 6.0 × I0\(^{-5}\) , Ø = 30°C,

Volume(v\(_1\)) = L\(^3\) = 10\(^3\) → 1000

V\(_2\) = V\(_1\)(1 + γθ)

→ V\(_2\) = 1000[1 +  6.0 × I0\(^{-5}\) * 30]

= 1000[1 + 0.0018]

= 1000 * 1.0018 → 1,001.8

 increase in volume = 1,001.8 - 1000 

→ 1.8cm\(^3\)
