2. An Automobile Radiator
A small plastic container, called the coolant reservoir, catches
the radiator fluid that overflows when an automobile engine
becomes hot. The radiator is made of
copper and the coolant has an expansion
coefficient of 4.0x10

. If the radiator
is filled to its 15-quart capacity when the engine
is cold (6
o
C),how much overflow will spill into the
reservoir when the coolant reaches its operating
temperature (92
o
C)?
3. Modem eaves troughs and constructed from a roll of sheet aluminium in
one continuous piece. What is change in length of a 30m long Al trough
(= 23x10-6 C) for temperature range T=100 F?
4. A vertical steel antenna tower is 200 m high. Calculate the change in height of the tower that
takes place when the temperature changes from -20 C on a winter day to 30 C on a summer day.

expansion?
6. A metal vessel has a volume of 500.00 cm^3 at 0 C. If the coefficient of linear expansion is
