Question 16 of 126

Consider a rectangular sheet of solid material of length $\ell=9 \mathrm{~cm}$ and width $\mathrm{d}=4 \mathrm{~cm}$. The coefficient of linear expansion is $\alpha=3.1 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$ at room temperature and one atmospheric pressure. The mass of sheet $\mathrm{m}=0.1 \mathrm{~kg}$ and the specific heat capacity $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{v}}=900 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$. If the amount of heat supplied to the material is $8.1 \times 10^2 \mathrm{~J}$ then change in area of the rectangular sheet is :-
