What are two examples of thermal expansion in solid?
Two examples of thermal expansion in solids are the expansion of a metal rod when heated, causing it to increase in length, and the expansion of a bridge beam on a hot day, resulting in the beam bending slightly due to the increase in temperature.
Give some examples for expansion of solids?
All solids expand as they are heated but I guess you want some examples where this is either useful or a problem: Useful * Bimetalic strips used in thermostats. They are made by joining 2 metals with different rates of expansion together, as they get warm they bend one way, as they get cold they bend the other. Problem * Long pipes have to have S bends in them to allow for the expansion/contraction otherwise they buckle or snap. * Railway lines are laid with gaps in them so that there is room for them to expand. (This is where the ta ta ta tap sound comes from as the wheels go over the gaps.) * Bridges have to have be suspended to allow for expansion.
How do you compensate for the expansion of solids?
Expansion of solids can be compensated for by incorporating expansion joints in the structure, using materials with low coefficients of thermal expansion, and designing with appropriate clearances to allow for expansion without causing structural issues. It is also important to consider environmental factors that may contribute to expansion, such as temperature changes.
What solids expand when heated?
Most solids expand when heated due to increased thermal energy causing the atoms or molecules within the solid to vibrate more and increase their separation distance from each other. This expansion is governed by the material's coefficient of thermal expansion, which varies depending on the specific solid. Examples include metals, glass, and concrete.
Is it true that rubber and glass are examples of crystalline solids?
No, rubber and glass are examples of amorphous solids, not crystalline solids. Crystalline solids have a repeating atomic arrangement, while amorphous solids lack a regular, ordered structure.

Examples of thermal expansion in solids through heat?
Not sure what you mean; basically, ANY solid will expand if you heat it.
