A steel rod 30.0 m long, installed when the temperature was 10°C, is in a bridge that heats up to 40oC on a hot summer day. Steel's coefficient of linear expansion is 1.2 × 10-5 K-1. The bridge is built so the rod has an expansion space of 5 cm. Is this enough space? What is the increase in the length of the rod, in mm?
