The relationship between the coefficient of linear expansion \(\alpha\) and volumetric expansion (\(\gamma\)) is------

  • A. \(\gamma\) = \(\alpha ^{-3}\)
  • B. \(\gamma\) = \(\alpha\)
  • C. 3\(\alpha\)
  • D. \(\gamma\) = \(\alpha ^{3}\)

Correct Answer: C. 3\(\alpha\)

Explanation

volumetric expansion (\(\gamma\)) = 3x Linear expansion
