The Eiffel tower, which is made of steel (coefficient of linear expansion 13 x 10^-6/ degree C.), is 320 m high at 20(Degrees C). the change in height of the tower between the winter months when the average temperature is -20C and the summer months when the average temperature is 35C is ?
a. 42 cm
b. 35 cm
c. 23cm
d. 15 cm
e. 11cm
Change in height = L*coefficient of linear expansion *Delta T
= 320*13*10^-6*(35 +20) = 0.2288 m = 23 cm

SECTION I 01. (D) The Eiffel Tower (Fig. 13-31) is built of wrought iron approximately 300 m tall. Estimate how much its height changes between January (average temperature of 2°C) and July (average temperature of 25 C). Ignore the angles of the iron beams and treat the tower as a vertical beam. Ignore effects of Gravity. (T) A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (15°C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 15°C)...

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.
