A resistance thermometer reads R = 20.0 Ω, 27.5 Ω, and 50.0 Ω at the ice point (0°C), the steam point (100°C) and the zinc point (420°C), respectively. Assuming that the resistance varies with temperature as Rθ = R0 (1 + αθ + βθ2), find the values of R0, α and β. Here θ represents the temperature on the Celsius scale.
A metre scale made of steel is calibrated at 20°C to give correct reading. Find the distance between the 50 cm mark and the 51 cm mark if the scale is used at 10°C. Coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 1.1 × 10–5 °C–1.
A pendulum clock shows correct time at 20°C at a place where g = 9.800 m s–2. The pendulum consists of a light steel rod connected to a heavy ball. It is taken to a different place where g = 9.788 m s–1. At what temperature will the clock show correct time? Coefficient of linear expansion of steel = 12 × 10–6 °C–1.
