Question
An aluminum rod is 10.0 cm long and a steel rod is 80.0 cm long when both rods are at a temperature of 15°C. Both rods have the same diameter. The rods are now joined end-to-end to form a rod 90.0 cm long. If the temperature is now raised from 15°C to 90°C, what is the increase in the length of the joined rod? The coefficient of linear expansion of aluminum is 2.4 × 10-5 K-1 and that of steel is 1.2 × 10-5 K-1.

Answer:
0.9 cm
Explanation:
The computation in the increase in the length of the joined rod is shown below:
As we know that
Increase in length = increase in the length of aluminum rod + increase in The length of steel rod
= 0.9 cm
We simply added the length of aluminium rod and length of steel rod so that the length of the joined rod could come and the same is to be considered
