Answer:
ΔL = 0.66 m
Explanation:
The change in length on an object due to rise in temperature is given by the following equation of linear thermal expansion:
ΔL = αLΔT
where,
ΔL = Change in Length of the bridge = ?
α = Coefficient of linear thermal expansion = 11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹
L = Original Length of the Bridge = 1000 m
ΔT = Change in Temperature = Final Temperature - Initial Temperature
ΔT = 40°C - (-20°C) = 60°C
Therefore,
ΔL = (11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(1000 m)(60°C)
<u>ΔL = 0.66 m</u>
Hello,
The answer is to "prove your hypothesis".
Reason:
Researchers do experiments to prove there hypothesis they will most likely do the experiment a few times in older to have the conclusion valid therefore proving his or her experiment.
If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!
Hope this helps!
