A metallic vessel is completely filled with liquid. Metal linear expansion coefficient is 2.0 × $1 0^{- 6}^{\circ} C^{- 1}$ and liquid cubical expansion coefficient is $6.0 \times 1 0^{- 6}^{\circ} C^{- 1}$ . On heating:

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

$γ_{ν} = 3 α = 6.0 \times 1 0^{- 6} = γ_{l}$ . Both volumes increase equally to first order, leaving the vessel full.
