The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 × 10-6 K-1 . What is the change in length of a 25-m steel bridge span when it
undergoes a temperature change of 40 K from winter to Summer?
1 answer:
Answer:
0.012-m
Explanation:
∆L = α × Lo × (T-To)
α is the coefficient of linear expansion = 12 × 10-6 K-1
Lo = Initial length = 25-m
∆L = Change in length
(T-To) = 40 K
∆L = 12 × 10-6 × 25 × 40
∆L = 0.012-m

Explanation:
well they are normally bigger than the inner planets, and they also have a bigger distance to go
That would be an asteroid
Answer:
3
Explanation:
v = v⁰ (its original speed) + a (negative acceleration) X t² (time)
v = 15 - 10 x 1.2 = 15 - 12 = 3 (it's slowing down)
