Thermal expansion coefficient is how matter reacts to temperature, one of the best places to find information for free is at your local library in the encyclopedia or online in a few places, Wikipedia is often a good source for research, there are also various engineering sites that will show up from searching the words "thermal expansion coefficient" that will give the information,
What else can I help you with?
What factors contribute to the material with a higher coefficient of thermal expansion expanding more when exposed to heat compared to a material with a lower coefficient of thermal expansion?
Materials with a higher coefficient of thermal expansion expand more when heated because they have weaker atomic bonds, allowing the atoms to move more freely and increase in volume. In contrast, materials with a lower coefficient of thermal expansion have stronger atomic bonds, restricting their movement and resulting in less expansion when heated.
What is the thermal expansion coefficient for monel?
Thermal expanasion coefficient fro monel is 0,0000075 m/mºC. More info at http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/linear-expansion-coefficients-d_95.html
What is better the one having less or more Thermal Expansion Coefficient?
Depends on your application. The Thermal Expansion Coefficient is a number which represents how much a material will physically expand with an increase in temperature. If you want it to grow as it heats, it is the better material.
What is the significance of the air thermal expansion coefficient in relation to atmospheric changes and climate patterns?
The air thermal expansion coefficient is important because it affects how air expands and contracts with changes in temperature. This can impact atmospheric pressure, wind patterns, and ultimately, climate patterns. A higher thermal expansion coefficient can lead to more extreme weather events and changes in global climate.
Which of the two metals contract more when cooled?
Generally, all metals contract when cooled. However, the rate at which they contract depends on their coefficient of thermal expansion. In general, materials with higher coefficients of thermal expansion will contract more when cooled.
Which direction does bimetallic strip bend toward higher or lower coefficient of expansion?
The bimetallic strip bends towards the material with the higher coefficient of thermal expansion. This is because the material with the higher coefficient expands more when heated, causing the strip to bend towards that side.
Which direction does a bimetallic strip bend when cooled?
A bimetallic strip bends towards the side of the metal with higher coefficient of thermal expansion when cooled. This is because the metal with the higher coefficient of thermal expansion contracts more when cooled, causing the bimetallic strip to curve towards that side.
How do you calculate compression of metals if they cooled under -73 degree temperature?
Either the question is misworded, or more information is needed. Compression implies load; in order for a peice of metal to be loaded by a temperature change, it would need to be rigidly restrained by something with a different coefficient of thermal expansion. If you mean what is the dimensional change, that is answerable. It is as follows: (original size) X (coefficient of thermal expansion) X (temperature difference) = (change in length) You need to look up the coefficient of thermal expansion, and make sure you get the units right: /°C or /°F
What is the thermal expansion coefficient of air and how does it affect the behavior of gases in different temperature environments?
The thermal expansion coefficient of air is approximately 0.00367 per degree Celsius. This means that as the temperature of air increases, its volume also increases. In different temperature environments, gases behave differently due to their thermal expansion coefficients. For example, in warmer temperatures, gases expand and occupy more space, while in colder temperatures, gases contract and occupy less space.
What is the scientific name for the inrease in the size of a substance when the temperature is increased?
Thermal Expansion. Each liquid or pure solid has a specific thermal of expansion. The thermal expansion of a substance is not linear, though for most of the temperatures we encounter in normal life, it is close enough to linear to be able to use a linear definition called the "Coefficient of Thermal Expansion".
Why liquids have two coefficient of expansion?
Liquids have two coefficients of expansion because they can expand in both volume (volume coefficient of expansion) and in area (area coefficient of expansion) when heated. The volume coefficient of expansion relates to changes in the volume of the liquid, while the area coefficient of expansion relates to changes in the surface area.
When a bimetallic strip is heated it bends toward the metal with the thermal expansion?
When a bimetallic strip is heated, the metal with the higher coefficient of thermal expansion expands more than the other metal, causing the strip to bend towards that metal. This bending is due to the unequal expansion and contraction of the two metals when exposed to different temperatures.
