A column of air 10.0cm long is trapped in a tube at 27oC. What is the length of the volume at 100oC?
A
12.4cm
B
13.7cm
C
18.5cm
D
37.0cm
Verified Correct Answer: A.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
\(\frac{V_1}{T_1}\) = \(\frac{V_2}{T_2}\)
\(\frac{10\times A}{27 + 273}\) = \(\frac{L\times A}{100 + 273}\)
L = 12.43cm
