An aluminum pipe has a length of 53 m at a temperature of 7°C. An adjacent steel pipe at the same temperature is 7 mm longer. At what temperature will the aluminum pipe be 21 mm longer than the steel pipe? Assume that the coefficient of thermal expansion for the aluminum is 22.5x10-6/°C and that the coefficient of thermal expansion for the steel is 12.5×106/°C. Answer: Tf = i °C
An aluminum pipe has a length of 65 m at a temperature of 16°C. An adjacent steel pipe at the same temperature is 5 mm longer than the aluminum pipe. At what temperature (in degrees Celsius) will the aluminum pipe be 14 mm longer than the steel pipe? (Assume that the coefficients of thermal expansion of aluminum and steel are a, = 23 x 10-6/°C and a = 12 x 10-6/°C, respectively. Also assume that the temperature of both pipes change equally.) °C
