Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v2.

Correct question is;
A thermal tap used in a certain apparatus consists of a silica rod which fits tightly inside an aluminium tube whose internal diameter is 8mm at 0°C.When the temperature is raised ,the fits is no longer exact. Calculate what change in temperature is necessary to produce a channel whose cross-sectional is equal to that of the tube of 1mm. (linear expansivity of silica = 8 × 10^(-6) /K and linear expansivity of aluminium = 26 × 10^(-6) /K).
Answer:
ΔT = 268.67K
Explanation:
We are given;
d1 = 8mm
d2 = 1mm
At standard temperature and pressure conditions, the temperature is 273K.
Thus; Initial temperature; T1 = 273K,
Using the combined gas law, we have;
P1×V1/T1 = P2×V2/T2
The pressure is constant and so P1 = P2. They will cancel out in the combined gas law to give:
V1/T1 = V2/T2
Now, volume of the tube is given by the formula;V = Area × height = Ah
Thus;
V1 = (πd1²/4)h
V2 = (π(d2)²/4)h
Thus;
(πd1²/4)h/T1 = (π(d2)²/4)h/T2
π, h and 4 will cancel out to give;
d1²/T1 = (d2)²/T2
T2 = ((d2)² × T1)/d1²
T2 = (1² × T1)/8²
T2 = 273/64
T2 = 4.23K
Therefore, Change in temperature is; ΔT = T2 - T1
ΔT = 273 - 4.23
ΔT = 268.67K
Thus, the temperature decreased to 268.67K
