The rectangular plate shown in Figure P19.55 has an area Ai equal to If the temperature increases by ΔT, each dimension increases according to the equation ΔL = aLi ΔT, where & is the average coefficient of linear expansion. Show that the increase in area is ΔA = 2aAi ΔT. What approximation does this expression assume? Download free solution (doc) |
