Change in iron ring on heating with reason.
Answer to Problem 50SSC
When the metal ring is heated, the gap becomes wider, also, all other measurements increase on heating.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Iron is a chemical element in the periodic table. It is represented by the symbol Fe (derived from Latin word: ferrum). Its atomic number is 26.
Most metals expand when they are heated up. When substances are heated up, the molecules and atoms of that substance start vibrating at a faster rate as they are solid, this results in the increase in space between atoms. The
Conclusion:When the metal ring is heated, the gap becomes wider, also, all other measurements increase on heating.
