A metallic bar is heated from 0° C to 100°  C. The coefficient of linear expansion is $10^{-5}K^{-1}$. What will be the percentage increase in length


A) 0.01%

B) 0.1%

C) 1%

D) 10%

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

$\frac{\triangle l}{l}=\alpha \triangle T=10^{-5}\times 100=10^{-3}$

$\frac{\triangle l}{l}\times 100$ %  $=10^{-3}\times 100=10^{-1}=0.1$ %
