उत्तर
Let the original length of iron rod be LFe and L'Fe be its length when temperature is increased by ΔT.
Let the original length of aluminium rod be LAl and L'Al be its length when temperature is increased by ΔT.
Coefficient of linear expansion of iron,
\[\alpha_{Fe}\] = 12 × 10–6 °C
\[-\] 1
Coefficient of linear expansion of aluminium, αAl = 23 × 10–6 °C
\[-\] 1
Since the difference in length is independent of temperature, the difference is always constant.
\[L '_{Fe} = L_{Fe} \left( 1 + \alpha_{Fe} \times ∆ T \right)\]
\[and\] \[ L '_{Al} = L_{Al} \left( 1 + \alpha_{Al} \times ∆ T \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow \begin{array}\[L '_{Fe} - L '_{Al} = L_{Fe} - L_{Al} + L_{Fe} \times \alpha_{Fe} ∆ T - L_{Al} \times \alpha_{Al} \times ∆ T & - (1)\end{array}\]
\[Given: \]
\[L '_{Fe} - L '_{Al} = L_{Fe} - L_{Al} \]
\[Hence, L_{Fe} \alpha_{Fe} = L_{Al} \alpha_{Al} [using (1)]\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{L_{Fe}}{L_{Al}} = \frac{23}{12}\]
The ratio of the lengths of the iron to the aluminium rod is 23:12.
