Question

steel bars, each of length 3cm at 29°c are to be used for constructing a rail line. lf the linear expansivity of steel is 1.0×10^-5k^-1, calculate the safety gap between successive bars if the highest temperature expected is 41°c​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi, Im Jenna! Here is ur ansswer Pls mark as braijnliest

Explanation:

solution.

The formula for linear expansivity is

α = (If – If) / If (0f – 0i ) is used to determine the linear expansivity

If – final length,

I – initial length

0f – final tempt.

0i – initial tempt.

(b) (ii)

I = 3 m

0 = 29oC

02 = 41oC

α = 1.0 x 10 k-1

using safety gap = change in length

Δ l = α I Δ Θ

1 x I0-5 x 3.0 x (41 – 29) = 3.6 x 10-3 m = 0.0036
