The coefficient of linear expansion, given that the length of the pipe increased by 1.5 cm is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

<h3>How to determine the coefficient of linear expansion</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained

  • Original diameter (L₁) = 10 m
  • Change in length (∆L) = 1.5 cm = 1.5 / 100 = 0.015 m
  • Change in temperature (∆T) = 90 °F
  • Coefficient of linear expansion (α) =?

The coefficient of linear expansion can be obtained as illustrated below:

α = ∆L / L₁∆T

α = 0.015 / (10 × 90)

α = 0.015 / 900

α = 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of linear expansion is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

Sophie [7]

Answer:

η₁ = 2.6

Explanation:

Here, we will use snell's law to calculate the refractive of the substance:

\frac{\eta_2}{\eta_1} = \frac{Sin\theta_1}{Sin\theta_2}

where,

η₁ = refractive index of first substance = ?

η₂ = refractive index of second substance = 1.5

θ₁ = angle of incidence = 30°

θ₂ = angle of refraction = 60°

Therefore,

\frac{1.5}{\eta_1} = \frac{Sin\ 30^0}{Sin\ 60^0}

<u>η₁ = 2.6</u>

Define alpha and beta​
elena55 [62]

alpha is the excess return on an investment after adjusting for market related volatility and random fluctuations.

beta is a measure of volatility relative to a benchmark ,such as the S&P 500.

Explanation:

alpha and beta are two different parts of an equation used to explain the performance of stocks and investments funds. But in maths alpha and beta is the Greek alphabet
