The length $L$ of a metal rod is given in terms of the temperature $T\left(^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$ by $L=39.6+0.025 T \mathrm{cm} .$ Within what range of temperature must the rod be kept if its length must be maintained within $\pm 1 \mathrm{mm}$ of $40 \mathrm{cm} ?$

What should be the lengths of a steel and copper rod at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ so that the length of the steel rod is $5 \mathrm{~cm}$ longer than the copper rod at any temperature? $$ \begin{aligned} &\alpha(\text { Steel })=1.1 \times 10^{-5}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1} \\ &\alpha(\text { Copper })=1.7 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{C} \end{aligned} $$ (a) $14.17 \mathrm{~cm} ; 9.17 \mathrm{~cm}$ (b) $9.17 \mathrm{~cm}, 14.17 \mathrm{~cm}$ (c) $28.34 \mathrm{~cm} ; 18.34 \mathrm{~cm}$ (d) $14.17 \mathrm{~cm}, 18.34 \mathrm{~cm}$
