Chapter 2, Problem 15PP

It is important to consider the effect of thermal expansion when building a structure that must withstand changes in temperature. For example, a metal beam will expand in hot temperatures. The additional stress could cause the structure to fail. Similarly, a material will contract in cold temperatures. The linear change in length of a material if it is allowed to freely expand is described by the following equation:

  L Δ=α L 0 T Δ

Here, L0 is the initial length of the material in meters, LΔ is the displacement in meters, TΔ is the change in temperature in Celsius, and a is a coefficient for linear expansion.

Write a program that inputs a, LΔ, and TΔ, then calculates and outputs the linear displacement. If the displacement is positive then output that “The material will expand by” the displacement in meters. If the displacement is negative then output that “The material will contract by” the displacement in meters. You shouldn’t output the displacement as a negative number. Here are some values for a for    different materials.

INTRODUCTION: Heat conduction from a cylindrical solid wall of a pipe can be determined by the follow T1-T2 q = 2nLk R2 In R. where: q is the computed heat conduction in Watts. k is the thermal conductivity of the pipe material in Watts/°C/m. L is the length of the pipe in cm. Ri is the inner radius of the pipe in cm. R2 is the outer radius of the pipe in cm. Ti is the internal temperature in °C. T2 is the external temperature in °C. ASSIGNMENT: Write a C program that will allow the user to enter the inner and outer radii of the pipe, the the internal and external temperatures. Once the user enters the input values, the program
