A non-isotropic solid metal cube has coefficients of linear
expansion as:
5× 10–5 /∘C5 \times \ 10^{–5}\ /{^\circ}C along the x-axis and
5×10–6 /∘C5 \times 10^{–6}\ /{^\circ}C along the y and the z-axis. If the
coefficient of volume expansion of the solid is

C×10–5 /∘CC \times 10^{–5}\ /{^\circ}C then the value of C is.........

Show answer and solution
V=2α2+α1V = 2\alpha_{2} + \alpha_{1}
=10×10−6+5×10−5= 10 \times 10^{- 6} + 5 \times 10^{- 5}
=60×10−6/ ∘C= 60 \times 10^{- 6}/\ ^{\circ}C
