A steel cable spanning a river is 200,000 m long when the temperature is 20.oC. What will be its length when the temperature drops to 0oC? (The coefficient of thermal expansion of steel is 12.x10-6K-1.)
Here ,
initial length , Lo = 200,000 m
change in temperature , del T = 20 degree C
thermal expansion coefficient , alpha = 1.2 *10^-6 K^-1
Now , for the length at T = 0 degree C
length = Lo *(1 - alpha * delta T)
length = 200000 * ( 1 - 1.2 *10^-6 * 20)
length = 199995.2 m
the length of the cable at 0 degree C is 199995.2 m

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...
A 10.0-m long steel cable needs to be able to support a mass of 96 kg without stretching more than 0.50 cm. Determine the necessary diameter of the cable. The elastic modulus of steel is 200 x 109 Pa. [3.5 mm] A hollow aluminum cylinder has a volume of 2.500 L at 30.00°C. It is completely filled with acetone at the same temperature. The combination is slowly warmed to a new temperature of 80.00°C. Some of the acetone overflows, and...
A segment of steel railroad track has a length of 30.000 m when the temperature is 0.0°C. (a) What is its length when the temperature is 40.0°C? SOLUTION Conceptualize Because the rail is relatively long, we expect to obtain a measurable increase in length for a 40°C temperature increase. problem Categorize We will evaluate a length increase using the discussion of this section, so this part of the example is an analysis Use AL aLAT and the value of the...
