The ends of the bars shown in the figure are 5 mm apart at 25 ° C. The left hand bar is brass and is 1.00 m long, and the right hand bar is steel and is 1.00 m long as well, assuming the outer ends of both bars are firmly supported against rigid supports.   a) Determine at what temperature the ends of the facing bars just touch. b) If only 5 µm were separated, what would now be the necessary temperature to join them?
