Two rods. (a) Show that if the lengths of two rods of dif- ferent solids are inversely proportional to their respective coef- ficients of linear expansion at the same initial temperature, the difference in length between them will be constant at all tem- peratures. What should be the lengths of (b) a steel and (c) a brass rod at 0.00°C so that at all temperatures their difference in length is 0.30 m?

When water boils in a pot with a loose lid, the increasedpressure forces the lid upward, releasing steam and reducing the pressurein the pot so that the lid drops back down. If the water continues toboil, the lid can rattle upward and downward. Consider a 1 L pot halffilled with boiling water. In this case there is half a liter, or 1/11.2 mol, ofair and steam above the water When the water is rapidly boiling, estimate the height to which the lid jumps during a steam-release event.
