Answer:
a) 2.542 cm
b) 30.30 °C
Explanation:
a) Δd = coefficient of linear expansion x original diameter x change in
      temperature
     = αdΔT
     = 1.10 x 10^-5 x 2.54 x (97 - 26)
     = 0.00198374 cm
new diameter = 2.540 cm + 0.00198374 cm = 2.54198374 cm = 2.542 cm
b) change in volume = average volume expansion coefficient x original
                   volume x change in temperature
               ΔV = βVΔT
            0.0011V = 3.30 x 10^-5 x V x ΔT
                 ΔT = 30.30 °C
