Options
- AThe length increases by 0.008 cm, and there is no thermal stress.
- BThe length increases by 0.355 cm, and there is thermal stress.
- CThe length increases by 0.346 cm, and there is no thermal stress.
- DThe length increases by 0.016 cm, and there is thermal stress.
Correct answer
C. The length increases by 0.346 cm, and there is no thermal stress.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) The length increases by 0.346 cm, and there is no thermal stress.
