A metal ball having a diameter of `0.4` m is heated from `273` to `360 K.` If the coefficient of areal expansion of the material of the ball is `0.000034 K^(-1)`, then determine the increase in surface area of the ball.

Answer» Given, dimeter =`0.4` m and radius, `r=(0.4)/(2)=0.2` m
`therefore " " ` Area of ball `A_(o)=4pir^(2)=4xxpixx(0.2)^(2)=0.5024 m^(2)`
Temperature, `DeltaT=T_(2)-T_(1)-T_(1)=360K-273K=87K`
Coefficient of area expansion, `beta=0.000034K^(-1)`
Apply `DeltaA=betaA_(o)DeltaT`
`Rightarrow" " DeltaA=0.000034xx0.5024xx0.5024xx87=0.001486=1.486xx10^(3)m^(2)`
