Thermal Expansion Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature‚ through heat transfer. The coefficient of thermal expansion describes how the size of an object changes with a change in temperature. Specifically‚ it measures the fractional change in size per degree change in temperature at a constant pressure. Several types of coefficients have been developed: volumetric‚ area‚ and linear. This is used depending on the particular application

THERMAL EXPANSION HEAT MYP-5 | Thermal Expansion happens a lot in everyday life. When something is heated and expands this is Thermal Expansion. The way Thermal Expansion works‚ is when it is heated the atoms expand‚ and then when it is cooled it shrinks. Several examples of Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature. When a substance is heated‚ its particles begin moving more and thus usually maintain a greater average separation
