4. A ball is slightly too large to fit through a hole in a flat plate. The drawing shows two arrangements of this situation. In Arrangement I the ball is made from metal A and the plate from metal B. When both the ball and the plate are cooled by the same number of Celsius degrees, the ball passes through the hole. In Arrangement II the ball is also made from metal A, but the plate is made from metal C. Here, the ball passes through the hole when both the ball and the plate are heated by the same number of Celsius degrees.

An underground gasoline tank can hold 1.00 103 gallons of gasoline at 52.0F. If the tank is being filled on a day when the outdoor temperature (and the gasoline in a tanker truck) is 95.0F, how many gallons from the truck can be poured into the tank? Assume the temperature of the gasoline quickly cools from 95.0F to 52.0F upon entering the tank.

In winters, if is often warmer in San Francisco than in nearby Sacramento, 150 km inland. In summers, it is nearly always hotter in Sacramento. Explain how the bodies of water surrounding San Francisco moderate its extreme temperatures.
Most automobiles have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid than may overflow when 1he engine is hot. A radiator is made of copper and is filled to its 16.0L capacity when at 10.0C. What volume of radiator fluid will overflow when the radiator and fluid reach their 95.0C operating temperature, given that the fluid’s volume coefficient of expansion is =400106/C ? Note that this coefficient is approximate, because most car radiators have operating temperatures of greater than 95.0C.
