Answer:
C. The procedure scientist use to gain knowledge about the ohysical world
Explanation:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
To solve this question, we will need to develop an expression that relates the diameter 'd', at temperature T equals the original diameter d₀ (at 0 degrees) plus the change in diameter from the temperature increase ( ΔT = T):
d = d₀ + d₀αT
for the sphere, we were given
D₀ = 4.000 cm
α = 1.1 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius
we have D = 4 + (4x(1.1 x 10⁻⁵)T = 4 + (4.4x10⁻⁵)T EQN 1
Similarly for the Aluminium ring we have
we were given
d₀ = 3.994 cm
α = 2.4 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius
we have d = 3.994 + (3.994x(2.4 x 10⁻⁵)T = 3.994 + (9.58x10⁻⁵)T EQN 2
Since @ the temperature T at which the sphere fall through the ring, d=D
Eqn 1 = Eqn 2
4 + (4.4x10⁻⁵)T =3.994 + (9.58x10⁻⁵)T, collect like terms
0.006=5.18x10⁻⁵T
T=115.7K
