When spheres are raised to the same temperature
When spheres are raised to the same temperature
- A. 1: 32: 243
- B. 1: 8: 27
- C. 1: 16: 128
- D. 1: 4: 9
Step-by-step solution
For spheres of the same material heated by the same temperature change, the ratio of their volumes (or volume changes) equals the ratio of the cubes of their radii. If radii are in the ratio 1:2:3, the volumes scale as 1³:2³:3³ = 1:8:27.
