What is a sentence for thermal expansion?
Thermal expansion is the dimensional changes exhibits by solids, liquids, and gases for changes in temperature while pressure is held constant.
Give one use of thermal expansion in gases?
To lift hot air balloons
What force from expansion of gases pushes rockets forward?
Thermal expansion of the combusting gases in the rocket nozzles (bottom of the rocket) pushes them against the outside air, and the equal-and-opposite reaction is to push the rocket upward.
What is the increase of the volume of a substance by the increase of temperature called?
This increase of volume is called expansion
Does most matter expand when heated?
Matter expands when heated, because molecules move farther apart.

What is thermal expansion and explain its two types?
- Thermal expansion is the dimension modification of a material under heating. - Linear, volumetric and area thermal expansion are known and measured for materials.
How does thermal expansion affect a bridge?
A bridge must have expansion gaps or else they will waver when they expand in warm temperatures. This is thermal expansion
Liquids expansion by heat?
Yes as friend Des Dichado pointed out liquids do have thermal expansion.
The expansion of matter when it is heated is known as?
thermal expansion
What is the thermal expansion coefficient for steel c 15?
thermal expansion depends on Temperature and material of steel
What is the process of thermal expansion?
Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
