Let coefficient of linear and area expansion be α a n d β respectively. where ∆ T is change in temperature. For simplicity let us consider the case of square of side L. Therefore, coefficient of area expansion is twice the linear expansion.
Mexico is a country that is located on a geologically very active place, and it has lot of active and extinct volcanoes all over its territory.
Explanation:
Mexico is country located on a geologically very active place. The North American plate, Cocos plate, Pacific plate, and Caribbean plate all have boundaries there, which in turn results in volcanic activity, as well as the occurrence of lot of earthquakes. Since this has been going on for millions of years, lot of the older volcanoes are now extinct, but because the activity has continued, new ones have occurred which are still active.
Extinct volcanoes are:
- Los Atlixcos
- Sierra Chichinautzin
- Coronado
Active volcanoes are:
- Colima
- Popocatepetl
- El Chichon
The volcanoes that are extinct still are easily visible in their surroundings, as they have very strong base of igneous rocks, so they take lot of time to get eroded. The ones that are active. stick out in their surroundings as they are pretty high. They have different types of eruptions, and while some are not very dangerous, some manage to cause huge damage because of their powerful and dangerous eruptions.
