The coefficient of linear expansion of steel and brass are `11 xx 10^-6//^@ C` and `19 xx 10^-6// ^@ C`, respectively. If their difference in lengths at all temperature has to kept constant at `30 cm`, their lengths at `0^@ C` should beA. `71.25 cm and 41.25 cm`B. `82 cm and 52 cm`C. `92 cm and 62 cm`D. `62.25 cm and 32.25 cm`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`Delta l_1 = Delta l_2`
`:. L_(1) alpha_(1) Delta theta = l_(2) alpha_(2) Delta theta`
or `(l_1)/(l_2) = (alpha_2)/(alpha_1)= (9)/(11)`
In option (a), ratio is `(19)/(11)`.
