An example of the use of expansion of materials when they are heated is in
Thermometers. Thermometer is an instrument which is used to measure the
temperature of a place.
It contains mercury which expands as temperature increases. This is used
to accurately determine the temperature of an object.
The disadvantage of expansion of materials when they are heated can be
seen in roads as there is expansion of the surface as a result of heat
exposure leads to roads being rough thereby incurring more costs for
repairs.

The average speed would be 0.65 m/s, therefore the correct option is (A).
The average speed is calculated by the formula
Average speed= (total distance/ total time)
The total distance of the trip=9.5+3.5+15=28 m
The total time of trip=43 sec
Therefore the average speed=28/43=0.65 m/s.
Answer: i think c
Explanation:QA: “What is ordinary glass made of ?”
Glass is mostly silica, or silicon dioxide, present as quartz in many types of sand. Pure silica forms a highly transparent glass, but has a very high melting or softening temperature, around 1700°C. Even at such high temperatures it is highly viscous and difficult to work. Its use is largely confined to applications requiring high transparency to ultra-violet and infra-red radiation, stability at elevated temperatures or low thermal expansion coefficient.
“Ordinary glass” windows and drinking vessels are typically made from soda-lime glass, containing silica with around 25% sodium, calcium and other oxides, which together reduce the softening temperature to roughly 500–600°C
