∙ 9y agoOne of the disadvantages of thermal energy storage is that the technology will also require a good mechanism to prevent the heat from escaping. Cooling towers are normally used for that.

also if your feet expand they don't fit into your shoes.

How does Thermal expansion and contraction affect dental waxes?
it expands and ur bf
What is thermal expansion and contraction of matter?
Thermal expansion will occur in just about all of the 15 or more phases of matter: whether it be solid, liquid, gas, etc.
What is thermal expension?
Thermal expansion is expension due to heat .When the molecule move faster in any object it is called thermal expension. Thermal contraction is when molecule contract in cold (low) temperature
What is the increase of the volume of a substance by the increase of temperature called?
This increase of volume is called expansion
What are the properties which make mercury suitable for clinical thermometer?
Its a liquid at room temperature and it has a high rate of thermal expansion and contraction(changes volume with temperature).
Why do railway lines have gaps in them?
to allow for the thermal expansion or contraction
Is thermal expansion and contraction a physical change?
Yes it is a physical change.
How does Thermal expansion and contraction affect dental waxes?
it expands and ur bf
Is it possible to save car mileage using the principle of thermal expansion and contraction?
No
What is a jar with its lid on tightly an example of?
Thermal expansion and contraction, specifically the different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) between glass and metal....AND ITS LIKE A (CLOSED SYSTEM)
What are jobs that require the use of thermal expansion and contraction?
Cement laying, for one job.
What are examples of thermal expansion and contraction?
the Mercury in a thermometer expands when heated and contracts when the temperature cools down.
What type of changes occurs in thermal expansion and contraction?
These are physical changes. No new substance is produced.
What is thermal expansion and contraction of matter?
Thermal expansion will occur in just about all of the 15 or more phases of matter: whether it be solid, liquid, gas, etc.
What are the disadvantages of structural steel?
Low resistance to fire, and high thermal expansion.
Could expansion when a substance is heated or contraction when a substance is coooled cause problems?
Yes, the thermal expansion is very important in physics and technology.
What is thermal expension?
Thermal expansion is expension due to heat .When the molecule move faster in any object it is called thermal expension. Thermal contraction is when molecule contract in cold (low) temperature
