Unit 6 Problem Set 1: Applying Thermal Expansion Learning Objectives and Outcomes Calculate the thermal expansions of solids and liquids. Assignment Requirements Complete the following problem. Show all of you work. The formula for the linear expansion of a solid is given by: An iron rod (α = 11.8 x 10-6 C-1) has a length of 1000 meters (or 1 km) at 0 degrees Celsius. If the rod must expand 10 cm to bridge a gap‚ to what temperature must the rod be heated? Increase in L = a*(T-To)L
