MCQ
An external pressure $P$ is applied on a cube at $0^o C$ so that it is equally compressed from all sides. $K$ is the bulk modulus of the material of the cube and a is its coefficient of linear expansion. Suppose we want to bring the cube to its original size by heating. The temperature should be raised by
  • $\frac{P}{{3\alpha K}}$
  • B
    $\;\frac{P}{{\alpha K}}$
  • C
    $\;\frac{{3\alpha }}{{PK}}$
  • D
    $\;3PK\alpha $

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{P}{{3\alpha K}}$
a
As we know , Bulk modulus

$K = \frac{{\Delta P}}{{\left( {\frac{{ - \Delta V}}{V}} \right)}} \Rightarrow \frac{{\Delta V}}{V} = \frac{P}{K}$

$V = {V_0}\left( {1 + \gamma \Delta t} \right)$

$\frac{{\Delta V}}{{{V_0}}} = \gamma \Delta t$

$\therefore \frac{P}{K} = \gamma \Delta t \Rightarrow \Delta t = \frac{P}{{\gamma K}} = \frac{P}{{3\alpha K}}$
