Food that is not in accord with Jewish law is called treif, (Yiddish: טרייף or treyf, derived from Hebrew: טְרֵפָה‎ trēfáh). In the technical sense, treif means "torn" and refers to meat which comes from an animal containing a defect that renders it unfit for slaughter. An animal that died through means other than ritual slaughter (or by a botched slaughter) is called a neveila which literally means "an unclean thing".[citation needed] Many of the basic laws of kashrut are derived from the Torah's Books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy, with their details set down in the oral law (the Mishnah and the Talmud) and codified by the Shulchan Aruchand later rabbinical authorities. The Torah does not explicitly state the reason for most kashrut laws, and many varied reasons have been offered for these laws, ranging from philosophical and ritualistic, to practical and hygienic.

The thermal linear expansion coefficient is positive when the material expands do you expect it be negative when the material contracts?

The coefficient remains positive, but the dT used will become negative, yielding a negative growth (ie, a contraction). See the equation below: dx = L * a * (Tactual - Tref) Where, L is the starting length a is the thermal expansion coefficient Tactual is the temperature you're evaluating at Tref is the reference (or starting) temperature If Tactual < Tref, then the quantity (Tactual - Tref) < 0
