If \(V_{0}\) and \(V_{0}\) be the volume of a body at \(0^{0}\)c and \(t^{0}\)c respectively then the coefficient of volume expansion is

\(V_{t}\) and \(V_{0}\)
\(\frac{V_{t}-V_{0}}{V_{0}}\)
\(\frac{V_{t}-V_{0}}{V_{0}t}\)
\(\frac{V_{t}-V_{0}}{t}\)

SI unit of coefficient of volume expansion is

\(k^{0}\)
\(k^{-1}\)
\(k^{-2}\)
\(k^{-3}\)

\(k^{-1}\) is the unit of

linear expansion coefficient
superficial expansion coefficient
volume expansion coefficient
above all

Coefficient of volume expansion is applicable for

solid
liquid
gas
all of the above

If \(\alpha\),\(\beta\) and \(\gamma\) be the linear, superficial and volume expansion coefficient of a substance respectively then the correct relation is

\(\alpha\):\(\beta\): \(\gamma\)=1:2:3
\(\alpha\):\(\beta\): \(\gamma\)=3:2:1
\(\alpha\)=3\(\beta\)=2 \(\gamma\)
\(\frac{\alpha}{2}\)=\(\frac{\beta}{3}\)=\(\gamma\)
