The length of the brass at a temperature rise of 100 K is 2.0036 m
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Original length (L₁) = 2 m
Temperature rise (ΔT) = 100 K
Coefficient of linear expansion (α) = 18×10¯⁶ K¯¹
Final length (L₂) =?
The final length of the brass can be obtained as follow:
α = L₂ – L₁ / L₁ΔT
18×10¯⁶ = L₂ – 2 / (2 × 100)
18×10¯⁶ = L₂ – 2 / 200
Cross multiply
L₂ – 2 = 18×10¯⁶ × 200
L₂ – 2 = 0.0036
Collect like terms
L₂ = 0.0036 + 2
L₂ = 2.0036 m
Thus, the length of the brass at a temperature rise of 100 K is 2.0036 m
