The linear expansivity of brass is 2 x 10\(^{-5}\)  \(^oC^{-1}\). If the volume of piece of brass is 10cm\(^3\) at 0\(^o\)C. What will be its volume at 100\(^o\)C? 

A.

10.06cm\(^3\)

B.

10.04 cm\(^3\)

C.

10.02 cm\(^3\)

D.

10.20 cm\(^3\)

Correct answer is A

3 x \(\alpha\) = \(\frac{V_2 - V_1}{V_1 \times \Delta \theta}\)

3 x 2 x 10\(^{-5}\) = \(\frac{V_2 - 10}{100 \times 10}\) 

V\(_2\) = (100 x 10 x 3 x 2 10\(^{-2}\)) + 10

= 10.06 cm\(^3\)
