At 22°C, a rod is exactly 24.49 cm long on a steel ruler. Both the rod and the ruler are placed in an oven at 230°C, where the rod now measures 24.60 cm on the same ruler. What is the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of which the rod is made? The linear expansion coefficient of steel is 11 x 10-6 1/C°.

A ruler is accurate when the temperature is 26.7 °C. When the temperature drops to -12.3 °C, the ruler shrinks and no longer measures distances accurately. However, the ruler can be made to read correctly if a force of magnitude 1.72 x 103 N is applied to each end so as to stretch it back to its original length. The ruler has a cross-sectional area of 1.39 x 10-5 m2, and it is made from a material whose coefficient of...

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?
