Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.4 cm

Explanation:

This problem refers to calculate the change in length in one dimension due to a change in temperature.

Data

α = 12 x 10⁻⁶

Lo = 150 meters

ΔT = 30 °C

Formula

ΔL/Lo = αΔT

solve for ΔL

ΔL = αLoΔT

Substitution

ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶)(150)(30)

Simplification

ΔL = 0054 m = 5.4 cm

The inner planets are rocky because The warm temperatures in the inner disk caused the inner planetesimals to be formed of mostly rocky material.

What are rocky planets?

Rocky planets are the planet in which constituents are mostly silicate rocks or metal. They are also regarded as a planet with a solid surface.
The formation of rocky planets is said to have occurred billions of years ago and its process of formation is termed accretion. Through accretion are its constituents formed as the more it goes bigger, the higher the rising temperature and pressure in its core and the elements which have to undergo accreted heat up, melt, and spread. Through this process, heavier elements go deeper into the core of the planet and lighter elements float toward the surface.
In the formation of rocky planets, the inner portions of the disk are said to be warm from the protostar thereby resulting in the production of the heavy elements that stay there.
