Chapter 5, Problem 11Q
(¦ Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.)
. A company decides to make a novelty glass thermometer that uses water instead of mercury or alcohol.
(a) The thermometer would include a warning informing the user mat it should not be exposed to temperatures below 0°C Why?
(b) Suppose the thermometer is taken outside where the temperature is 1°C Describe how the level of the water would change as it adjusts to the new temperature and how at some point it would behave very differently than a mercury- or alcohol-filled thermometer.

Call the thickness of the ice layer L. (a) Derive an equation for dL/dt in terms of L , the temperature T above the ice, and the propertiesof ice (which you can leave in symbolic form instead of substituting the numbers). (b) Solve this differential equation assuming that at t = 0 , you have L = 0. If you have studied differential equations, you will know atechnique for solving equations of this type: manipulate the equation to get dL/dt multiplied by a (very simple) function of L on one side, and integrate both sides with respect to time. Alternatively, you may be able to use your knowledge of the derivatives of various functions to guess the solution, which has a simple dependence on t.
