1. A metal bar 2.6 m long at 21°C is heated to 93°C. Its new length is 2.6034 m. What is its coefficient of linear expansion?
2. A piece of aluminum (a = 25 x 10^-6 /°C) is 3.66 m long at -28°C. What will its length be at 39°C?
3. An aluminum (b = 75 x 10^-6 /° C) can has a volume of 354 cm³ at 4.4° C. What will its volume be at 34.5° C? When it is at 4.4° C, it is filled to the brim with water (b =210 x 10^-6 /° C). How much will overflow when at 34.5° C?
