An equilateral triangle ABC is formed by two Cu rods AB and BC and one Al rod. It is heated in such a way that temperature of each rod increases by ∆T. Find change in the angle ABC. [Coefficient of linear expansion for Cu is α1,Coeff. of linear expansion for Al is α2]

Options

  1. Adθ=(2α1−α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{\left( 2{{\alpha }_{1}}-{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}
  2. Bdθ=(2α1+α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{\left( 2{{\alpha }_{1}}+{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}
  3. Cdθ=2(α1−α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{2\left( {{\alpha }_{1}}-{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}
  4. Ddθ=(α1+α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{\left( {{\alpha }_{1}}+{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}

Correct answer

C. dθ=2(α1−α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{2\left( {{\alpha }_{1}}-{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C)
dθ=2(α1−α2)Δt3d\theta =\frac{2\left( {{\alpha }_{1}}-{{\alpha }_{2}} \right)\Delta t}{\sqrt{3}}
