3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the formula for calculating change in volume due to thermal expansion?
Remember to identify the symbols used in the formula.
What happens to liquid in a thermometer when it gets heated?
Think about why liquids behave differently from solids.
What is the formula for volumetric expansion?
Recall the specific parameters and symbols in thermal expansion.
True or False: The coefficient of volumetric expansion is always less than or equal to the coefficient of linear expansion.
Think about the relationship between linear and volumetric expansions.
An object with an initial volume of 1 m³ expands to 1.03 m³ when heated from 25°C to 75°C. Calculate the coefficient of volumetric expansion.
Use the expansion formula to find β after calculating ΔV.
A car's fuel tank made of a material with a β of 5 × 10⁻³ °C⁻¹ is filled with 20 gallons of fuel. If the temperature of the fuel increases from 15°C to 35°C, determine the volume increase.
Convert gallons to cubic meters and remember to use the correct formula.
