An iron tyre is to be fitted onto a wooden wheel 1.0 m in diameter. The diameter of the tyre is 6 mm smaller than that of wheel the tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of (coefficient of volume expansion of iron is `3.6xx10^-5//^@C`)A. `167^@C`B. `334^@C`C. `500^@C`D. `1000^@C`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Initial diameter of tyre`=(100-6)mm`,`=994mm`, so initial radius of tyre
`R=(994)/(2)=497mm`
and change in diameter `DeltaD=6mm`, so
`DeltaR=(6)/(2)=3mm`
Given that after increasing temperature by `DeltaT` tyre will fit onto wheel Increment in the length (circumference) of the iron tyre
`DeltaL=LxxalphaxxDeltaT=Lxx(gamma)/(3)xxDeltaT`
`(Asalpha=(gamma)/(3))`
`implies2piR=2piR((gamma)/(3))DeltaT`
`impliesDeltaT=(3)/(gamma)(DeltaR)/(R )=(3xx3)/(3.6xx10^-5xx497)`
[As `Delta R=3` mm and `R = 497` mm]
`impliesDelta=500^@C`
