What is the relation between coefficient of area expansion(A) and coefficient of volume expansion(B)?(a) B = 1.5A(b) A = 1.5B(c) A = 3B(d) B = 3AThis question was posed to me in quiz.My doubt is from Thermal Expansion topic in section Thermal Properties of Matter of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

Right ANSWER is (a) B = 1.5A

To EXPLAIN: Let the coefficient of LINEAR EXPANSION be α.The coefficient of area expansion is 2α and the coefficient of volume expansion is 3α.∴ The coefficient of volume expansion is 1.5 times the coefficient of area expansion∴ B=1.5A.
