(a) A circular copper ring at 21.0°C has a hole with an area of 9.97 cm2. What minimum temperature must it have so that it can be slipped onto a steel metal rod having a cross-sectional area of 10.0 cm2?   (b) Suppose the ring and the rod are heated simultaneously. What change in temperature of both will allow the ring to be slipped onto the end of the rod? (Assume no significant change in the coefficients of linear expansion over this temperature range
