They will expand by the same percentage, but that percentage, of course, results in more actual length of expansion on the longer object.

Do all objects expand when heated?

No, not all objects expand when heated. Most objects do expand when heated, but there are exceptions such as water between 0°C and 4°C, which contracts when heated. The expansion or contraction of an object when heated depends on its material properties.


A material may what when it is heated?

expand


How much does a bearing expand when heated?

The amount a bearing will expand when heated depends on factors such as material composition and temperature. However, typically a bearing will expand around 0.0005 inches per inch of diameter for every 100°F increase in temperature.


Do all solids expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature?

no , all solids do not expand by the same amount when heated through same temperature. it depends upon the coefficient of its linear expansion. We define avergae co-efficient of linear expansion in the temperature range deltaT as α=(1/L)(ΔL/ΔT) where L is initial length of the solid at the temperature T.. It varies from material to material , higher the value of alpha , it expands more..


When most objects are heated?

Expand


Two examples of thermal expansion?

Just about any material will expand if heated.


What causes material to expand when heated?

When a material is heated, its molecules gain energy and vibrate more vigorously, causing them to take up more space and the material to expand. This increase in movement between molecules results in increased separation between them, leading to expansion.


What are the implications of a material having a high coefficient of thermal expansion?

A material with a high coefficient of thermal expansion will expand significantly when heated and contract when cooled. This can lead to issues such as warping, cracking, or structural instability in objects made from that material when exposed to temperature changes.


Does lead expand when heated?

Yes, lead does expand when heated. As its temperature increases, the atoms in lead vibrate more vigorously and take up more space, causing the material to expand. This property is known as thermal expansion.


Why do objects expands when heated?

They expand because their molecules vibrate more rapidly resulting in more space between the molecules which makes the object expand.


Does matter expand or contract when heated up?

When heated up, matter typically expands due to an increase in kinetic energy within the atoms and molecules that make up the material. This increased kinetic energy causes the particles to move more vigorously, leading to a larger amount of space taken up by the material, hence the expansion.


Does temperature affects the density?

Temprature affects the volume, since most objects expand when they are heated. And density is mass / volume.
