How much does an iron casting expand when heated?
because molecules dissolve or melt during the process and expands.
Has no definte shape or volume?
pretty much all gases and liquids. you cant describe air as a shape right?and gases expand to fill the contaonter they're in. Liquids don't have a shape because they are atrracted to each other, like water.
Why do you use liquids not solids or gases in thermometers?
because liquids can give us the right temperature but solids and gases
Why does a solid does not expand as much as a gas when it is heated?
Adding heat to a solid gradually dilutes the structure and coalescent influence and increases their spacing (disperse). Any further continued injection of none binding heat units into the mass leads to gradual expansion (dispersion), eventually initiates a phase change. More information can be found in the related links section below.
Why is the weather balloon drawn so tall and thin?
To enable the gases inside the balloon to expand which they do when the balloon reaches high altitudes. At this point the balloon becomes much larger.
Do solids expand to a much greater extent than gases when heated?
No, gases expand more than solids when heated.
What state of matter expands the most on heating?
Solids, liquids and gases expand when heated, liquids and gases expand much more that solids. Gases can be compressed
If you dont eat can you belly get larger?
Yes. There is a condition where the stomach digests and produces gases, but since there is no or little food to digest, the stomach produces to much of the gases and the stomach will expand and distend as a result.
How much will water expand in a cistern when heated?
What size cistern what temp
How does the space shuttle get in space?
the fuel burns but the gases expand when heated and they try to find a way out, that's when they open the rocket boosters hole and the gass has expanded so much it forces the rockes upwards
How much does air expand when heated?
it depends on how much it is heated for example when lightning is released it expands the air by thousands of degrees by heat of it.and there is a big banging sound known as thunder
How much does an iron casting expand when heated?
because molecules dissolve or melt during the process and expands.
Why would an engineer need to know the effect of temperature on a solid?
Things expand when heated, and different materials expand differently. An engineer needs to calculate HOW MUCH things expand, and factor this in when designing anything.
How much does gas expand when heated?
gases obey the universal gas law of (gas pressure) * (gas volume) / (gas temperature) being a constant. If the pressure is kept unchanged before and after the heating occurs, doubling the temperature will increase the volume to two times the volume before.
How much will air expand when it is heated?
As much as it's allowed to. Remember: Any gas always expands to fill the container it's in, even without heating it.
Do all gases expand the same amount?
no, cuz there is a thing called the expansivity of a substance that tells us how much a particular substance will expand over 1 degree change in temprature
Why do materials expand once heated?
This is called thermal expansion. When an object is heated, it's particles move faster. This causes greater separation between the particles and the object expands. The coefficient of thermal expansion describes how much an object will expand per degree with the same applied pressure.
