Question

Many hot-water heating systems have a reservoir tank connected directly to the pipeline, so as to allow for expansion when the water becomes hot. The heating system of a house has 70.6 m of copper pipe whose inside radius is 7.83 x 10^{- 3} m. When the water and pipe are heated from 23.5 to 79.7 °C, what must be the minimum volume of the reservoir tank to hold the overflow of water?
