A brass (a=19 x 10-6 ºc- ring of diameter 10.01 cm at 20.0°C is heated and slipped over an aluminum rod (a = 24 x 10-6°c-1 ) of diameter 10.4 cm at 20.0°C. Assuming the average coefficients of linear expansion are constant, to what temperature (in 0c-1) must this combination be cooled to separate them?

An aluminum rod 0.500 m in length and with a cross-sectional area of 2.50 cm2 is inserted into a thermally insulated vessel containing liquid helium at 4.20 K. The rod is initially at 300 K. (a) If one-half of the rod is inserted into the helium, how many liters of helium boil off by the time the inserted half cools to 4.20 K? Assume the upper half does not yet cool. (b) If the circular surface of the upper end of the rod is maintained at 300 K, what is the approximate boil-off rate of liquid helium in liters per second after the lower half has reached 4.20 K? (Aluminum has thermal conductivity of 3 100 W/m K at 4.20 K; ignore its temperature variation. The density of liquid helium is 125 kg/m3.)

A brass rod is 40.1 cm long and an aluminum rod is 79.3 cm long when both rods are at an initialtemperature of 0°C. The rods are placed in line with a gap of 0.60 cm between them, as shown in the figure. The distance between the far ends of the rods is maintained at 120.0 cm throughout. The temperature of both rods is raised until the two rods are barely in contact. The coefficientsof linear expansion of brass and aluminum are 2.0 × 10^-5 K^-1 and 2.4 × 10^-5 K^-1, respectively. What is the temperature at which contact of the rods barely occurs?
