The scale is assumed to expand and contract with the solid - you cannot measure a solid with a 30cm ruler from another continent.
They expand ------- No, normally metals expand when heated.
Yes, solid materials expand when heated and contract when cooled. This is because heating causes the atoms and molecules in the material to vibrate more and increase their kinetic energy, leading to expansion. Conversely, cooling decreases their kinetic energy, causing them to move closer together and contract.
Heating the rim expands it
Not exactly sure what you mean by "stressful"...Cooling causes an object to contract and heating causes an object to expand. The amount of contraction/expansion depends on the situation.
Expand
explain how temperature affects matter using the words contract and expand
Expand
things expand when heated and contract when cooled. This seasaw action creates cracks and weakness in structures/landforms and causes weathering.
Oxygen does not have a fixed volume, as it can expand or contract based on changes in temperature and pressure. For instance, heating oxygen can cause it to expand and increase in volume, while cooling it can cause it to contract and decrease in volume.
They have to either expand or contract through movement. They can only expand and contract as far as their tissues will allow,
It will contract.
All rock can expand or contract.
