Answer:

10 meters

Explanation:

Let at 100 degrees Celsius, the aluminum bar is x m long.

We have been given that aluminum bar is 2 m long at a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius.

Thus, we have the equation

(2)/(20)=(x)/(100)

Solve the equation for x

$x=(2*100)/(20)\\\\x=10$

Thus, at 100 degree Celsius, the aluminium bar is 10 meters long.
