Obtain an expression for the variation of the density of a solid with temperature. |
|
Answer» Density, = \(\rho\) = \(\cfrac{mass}{volume}\) ∴ \(\rho_1\) = \(\cfrac{mass}{V_1}\) and \(\rho_2\) = \(\cfrac{mass}{V_2}\) ∴ \(\cfrac{\rho_1}{\rho_2}\) = \(\cfrac{V_2}{V_1}\) = 1 + \(\beta\) ΔT ∴ \(\rho_2\) = \(\cfrac{\rho_1}{1+\betaΔT}\) As the temperature increases, density decreases. |
