i. The relationship between degree Fahrenheit and degree Celsius is expressed as,
°F = \(\frac{9}{5}\)(°C) + 32
ii. The relationship between Kelvin and degree Celsius is expressed as,
K = °C + 273.15
1. The coefficient of linear expansion of a solid is defined as increase in the length per unit original length at 0 °C per degree rise in temperature.
It is denoted...
1. Coefficient of superficial (areal) expansion of a solid is defined as the increase in area per unit original area at 0 °C per degree rise in temperature
It is denoted...
(i) Coefficient of cubical (volume) expansion: Coefficient of cubical (volume) expansion of a solid is defined as increase in volume per unit original volume at O °C per degree rise in...
1. As compared to coefficient of linear expansion (α) and coefficient of areal expansion (β), γ changes more with temperature.
2. It is constant only at high temperatures.
