JEE Main 2022 · 25 Jun · Shift 2, Physics question 34

A solid metallic cube having total surface area 24 m2^2 is uniformly heated. If its temperature is increased by 10°C, calculate the increase in volume of the cube. (Given α=5.0×10−4\alpha=5.0\times10^{-4} °C−1^{-1}).

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Cube. 6a2=246a^2=24 m2^2, so a=2a=2 m and V=8V=8 m3^3.

Expansion. ΔV=3αVΔT=3(5×10−4)(8)(10)=0.12\Delta V=3\alpha V\Delta T=3(5\times10^{-4})(8)(10)=0.12 m3=1.2×105^3=1.2\times10^5 cm3^3.
