Question on: WAEC Physics - 2004

When a metal ball is heated through 30oC,its volume becomes 1.0018cm3. If the linear expansivity of the material of the ball is 2.0 x 10-5 K-1, calculate its original volume

A
1.0000cm3
B
1.0020cm3
C
1.0036cm3
D
1.0180cm3
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A

(V_1 = \frac{V_2}{3} = \frac{1.0018}{3 \times 2.0 \times 10^{-5} \times 30 + 1})

= 1cm3
