In a certain bimetallic strip, the brass strip is 0.100% longer than the steel strip at a temperature of 311°C. At what temperature do the two strips have the same length? Coefficients of linear expansion for steel \( \alpha = 12.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{K}^{-1} \) and for brass \( \alpha = 19.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{K}^{-1} \) (see Table 13.2).**Diagram Explanation:**The image shows three stages of a bimetallic strip composed of brass and steel:- **Cold**: The strip curves to the left, indicating the differential contraction of the two metals when cooled.- **Room temperature**: The strip is straight, suggesting equilibrium length at this temperature.- **Hot**: The strip curves to the right, illustrating differential expansion when heated.The objective is to find the temperature at which both strips have the same length, indicated by a blank space for temperature: \(\boxed{\,}\)°C.

Older railroad tracks in the U.S. are made of Part A 12-m-long pieces of steel. When the tracks are laid, gaps are left between the sections to prevent buckling when the steel thermally expands. If a track is laid at 16° C, how large should the gaps be if the track is not to buckle when the temperature is as high as 50° C? The coefficient of linear expansion of soft steel is 1.1 × 10-5 °C-1.
