How does a change in temperature affect the dimensions of a system?
Give examples where you have to consider the changes in the dimensions of a system when heat is added or extracted
5
A iron disc with a hole in it is heated.
Will the diameter of the hole (a) increase, (b) decrease or (c) not change?
Q

T1 < T2
Q
As metal expands, the distance between any two points increases. A hole expands just as if it’s made of the same material as the hole.
8
A nut is very tight on a screw. Which of the following is most likely to free it?
(a) Cooling it(b) Heating it(c) Either(d) Neither
9
Bimetallic strips Two strips of different metals welded together at one temperature become more or less curved at other temperatures because the metals have different values for their coefficient of linear expansion .
They are often used as thermometers and thermostats
lower metal expands more than upper metal when heated
Q
10Most solids and liquids expand when heated. Why?
Internal Energy U is associated with the amplitude of the oscillation of the atoms
Average distance between atoms
Inter-atomic forces
“springs”
11Collisions of thermally oscillating atoms make them shift further apart
PE
Separation of atoms
Solid heated increased vibration of atoms increase max displacement either side of equilibrium position vibration is asymmetric mean distance increases with increasing temperature

Vo = Lo3
V = L3 = (Lo + Lo T)3 = Lo3(1 + T)3
V = Lo3 (1 + 3 T + 3 2 T2 + 3 T3)
V = Lo3 (1 + 3 T) (ignoring higher order terms)

Water has an anomalous coefficient of volume expansion, is negative between 0 °C and 4 °C.
Liquid water is one of the few substances with a negative coefficient of volume expansion at some temperatures (glass bottles filled with water explode in a freezer) – it does not behave like other liquids
T > 4 °C water expands as temperature increases
0 < T < 4 °C water expands as temperature drops from 4 °C to 0 °C
T = 3.98 °C water has its maximum density

18Lakes freeze from top down rather from bottom up
Water on surface cools towards 0 °C due to surrounding environment. Water as it cools and becomes more dense, it sinks carrying oxygen with it (it is most dense at about 4 °C). Warmer water moves up from below. This mixing continues until the temperature reaches 4 °C. Water then freezes first at the surface and the ice remains on the surface since ice is less dense than water (0.917 g/mL). The water at the bottom remains at 4 °C until almost the whole body of water is frozen. Without this peculiar but wonderful property of water, life on this planet may not have been possible because the body of water would have
frozen from bottom up destroying all animal and plant life.

Problem B.1
As a result of a temperature rise of 32 °C a bar with a crack at
its centre buckles upward. If the fixed distance between the
ends of the bar is 3.77 m and the coefficient of linear
expansion of the bar is 2.5x10-5 K-1, find the rise at the centre.

From Pythagoras’ theorem
L2 = Lo2 + h2
h2 = L2 – Lo2
= (Lo + Lo T)2 – Lo2
= 2 Lo2T + 2 Lo

h = (2 T)½ Lo neglecting very small terms
h = {(2)(2.510-5)(32)}½ (1.885) m
h = 0.075 m Evaluate

Problem B.4
A surveyor uses a steel measuring tape that is exactly
50.000 m at a temperature of 20 oC. (a) What is the length
on a hot summer day when the temperature is 35 oC? (b)
On the hot day the surveyor measures a distance off the
tape as 35.794 m. What is the actual distance?
