The Stanford linear accelerator contains hundreds of brass disks tightly fitted into a steel tube (see figure). The coefficient of linear expansion of the brass is 2.00 10-5 per C°. The system was assembled by cooling the disks in dry ice (-57°C) to enable them to just slide into the close-fitting tube. If the diameter of a disk is 80.00 mm at 43°C, what is its diameter in the dry ice? brass di sk steel tube- (A 79.998 mm (B) 80.160 mm 78.400 mm (D) 79.840 mm

The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0 . What will its height be on a day when the temperature falls to -10.0 ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.
An aluminum rod 0.500 m in length and with a cross sectional area of 2.50 cm2 is inserted into a thermally insulated vessel containing liquid helium at 4.20 K. The rod is initially at 3(H) K. (a) If one-halt of the rod is inserted into the helium, how many liters of helium boil off by the time the inserted half cools to 4.20 K? Assume the upper half does not yet cool, (b) If the circular surface of the upper end of the rod is maintained at 300 K. what is the approximate boil-off rate of liquid helium in liters per second after the lower half has reached 4.20 K? (Aluminum has thermal conductivity of 3 100 YV/m K at 4.20 K; ignore its temperature variation. The density of liquid helium is 125 kg/m3.)
Consider an object with any one of the shapes displayed in Table 10.2.

(a) The inside of a hollow cylinder is maintained at a temperature Ta, and the outside is at a lower temperature, Tb (Fig. P19.45). The wall of the cylinder has a thermal conductivity k. Ignoring end effects, show that the rate of energy conduction from the inner surface to the outer surface in the radial direction is dQdt=2Lk[TaTbln(b/a)] Suggestions: The temperature gradient is dT/dr. A radial energy current passes through a concentric cylinder of area 2rL.

V 13. At 20.0°C, an aluminum ring has an inner diameter of QIC 5.000 0 cm and a brass rod has a diameter of 5.050 0 cm.

If both the ring and the rod are warmed together, what tem- perature must they both reach so that the ring barely slips over the rod? (c) Would this latter process work? Explain. Hint: Consult Table 19.2 in the next chapter.
To ensure a tight fit. the aluminum rivets used in airplane construction are made slightly larger that the rivet holes and cooled by dry ice before being driven. If the diameter of a hole is 0.500 cm. what should be the diameter of a rivet at 20 degree Celsius if its diameter is equal that of a hole when the rivet is cooled to -78°C, the temperature of dry ice? Assume the coefficient of linear expansion to remain constant.
A steel rule is calibrated for measuring lengths at 20.00'C. The rule is used to measure the length of a Vycor glass brick, when both are at 20.00°C, the brick is found to be 42.70 cm long. If the rule and the brick are both at 79.00°C, what would be the length of the brick as measured by the rule? Coefficient of linear expansion a for steel is 12.0 1076 K-1 and for glass (Vycor) is 0.750 x 10-6K-1 x cm
