An airplane has a half-wingspan of 35 m. Determine the change in length (mm) in mm of the aluminum alloy [Coefficient of Thermal Expansion = 22.5x10-6/°C] wing span if the plane leaves the ground at a temperature of 15°C and climbs to an altitude where the temperature is -51 °C. Note: Add minus sign if change in length is a contraction. Use 2 decimals
