Thermal Expansion of Solids, Liquids and Gases
 

Thermal Expansion of Solids, Liquids and Gases problem 35


What tools or data do we need to be able to use an iron rod to measure the temperature of the heated liquid in a container?

  • Density of iron, the linear expansivity of iron, measuring scale, and the specific heat capacity of the liquid.

  • Change in temperature, the pressure in the container, and the thickness of the rod.

  • Length of the rod at the initial temperature, the specific heat capacity of iron, measuring scale.

  • Expansion of the iron, measuring scale, and the initial temperature of the iron rod.

  • Change of temperature of the rod, the specific weight of iron, the external pressure, the pressure inside the container, and measuring scale;

  • Change in length of the iron rod, the density of iron, the mass of the rod, and the volume of the rod.
