Expansion formulas
LIENAL EXPANSION
Identifies each of the formulas and their values and the
procedure to relate them
What is the length of a copper cable
when the temperature decreases to 12°C,
if at 40°C it measures 430 m?
SUPERFICIAL EXPANSION
At a temperature of 17°C a common glass
window has an area of 1.6m^2. What will
be its final area when its temperature
increases to 32°C?
VOLUMETRIC EXPANSION
We place the following table, and we must consider it for the
solution of the exercises proposed below.
An aluminum bar of 0.5 cubic meters of volume initially
experiences a temperature of 14°C, later it is heated to 45°C,
what will be its final volume? how much has it increased?
