Sol. :- We are given coefficient of linear expansion of steel (a) = 12 K-1
And length of steel Bar (l) = 25 m
Change in temperature = 40
So, change in lenght of Bar = al = 12 = 0.012m or 1.2 cm
Hope this helps........

The coefficient of linear expansion of a mystery metal alloy is 1.20 x 10-5 K 1. At 20.0° C a rod made of this alloy has a length of 11.9200 m. The rod is cooled to -29.0° C. Calculate the change in length (AL) of the rod. Remember that a negative change in length means that the length decreases, and a positive change in length means that the length increases. (There must be three significant figures in your answer.) x...

3. The linear expansion coefficient is defined by AL/L = a AT. Consider a material for which a is not constant but is a function of temperature: a (T) = 2o + QT where T is the Kelvin temperature and do = 10-5 K-1 Q = 10-7 K2 A bar of this material has a length 1.00 meters at T = 273 K. At what temperature will its length be increased by one percent? (25 points)
A bridge with a steel framework is 500.000 m long on a winter day when the temperature of the steel is 5.0 'C. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion of steel is 11.0x107C. The bridge is built in with the two ends anchored in rock and it has a hinge at its center in case it expands past its original 500.000 m length. y = ? 250.000 m (a) How long is one half of the bridge at a temperature...
The average coefficient of volume expansion for carbon tetrachloride is 5.81 x 10-4 (°C)-1. If a 45.0-gal steel container is filled completely with carbon tetrachloride when the temperature is 10.0°C, how much will spill over when the temperature rises to 25.5°C? (Assume the coefficient of thermal expansion of steel is 11 x 10 (°C)-1.) 397575 X gal Your answer is incorrect.
