A capilllary glass tube of uniform bore contains a thread of mercury 1 m long at 0^(@)C. When temperature is raised to 100^(@)C, the thread is found to be 16.5 mm longer. If the coefficient of real expansion of mercury is =18.2 times 10^(-5@)C^(-1), then what will be the coefficient of linear expansion of glass?

1.	A capilllary glass tube of uniform bore contains a thread of mercury 1 m long at 0^(@)C. When temperature is raised to 100^(@)C, the thread is found to be 16.5 mm longer. If the coefficient of real expansion of mercury is =18.2 times 10^(-5@)C^(-1), then what will be the coefficient of linear expansion of glass?
Answer» Answer :`8.36 TIMES 10^(-6@)C^(-1)`
