Expert Solution
Step 1

Diameter of a hole or rivet at -78 degree Celsius, d=4.50×10-3 m

Length of the rivet at -78 degree Celsius, L=πd=0.01413 m

Expansion coefficient of Aluminum, α=2.4×10-5/°C

The diameter at 23 degree Celsius is to be evaluated, D

The Length of the Rivet at 23 degree Celsius would be L'

L' can be formulated as:L'=L+LαTT=Tf-Ti       =23°C--78°C       =101°C
