(II) A certain car has 14.0 L of liquid coolant circulating at a temperature of 93°C through the engine's cooling system. Assume that, in this normal condition, the coolant com- pletely fills the 3.5-L volume of the aluminum radiator and the 10.5-L internal cavities within the aluminum engine. When a car overheats, the radiator, engine, and coolant expand and a small reservoir connected to the radiator catches any resultant coolant overflow. Estimate how much coolant overflows to the reservoir if the system goes from 93°C to 105°C. Model the radiator and engine as hollow shells of aluminum. The coefficient of volume expansion for coolant is ß = 410 × 10-6/C°.
