A copper rod has an initial length 5.0 cm and a thermal expansion coefficient of 16 x 10-6 /K. It is heated from room temperature (22 °C) to a final temperature T, and its final length is 5.0064 cm. What is the final temperature in °C? In your answer, use the relation (Lfinal – Linitial)/ Linitial = a(Tfinal – Tinitial) where Linitial is the initial length, L final is the final length, Tinitial is the initial temperature, Tfinal is the final temperature, and a is the thermal expansion coefficient.

Question
A copper rod has an initial length 5.0 cm and a thermal expansion coefficient of 16 x 106 /K. It is heated from room temperature (22 °C) to a final
temperature T, and its final length is 5.0064 cm. What is the final temperature in °C?
In your answer, use the relation (L final – Linitial)/Linitial
a(Tfinal – Tinitial)
where Linitial is the initial length, L final is the final length, Tinitial is the initial temperature, Tfinal is the final temperature, and a is the thermal
expansion coefficient.
