The outer diameter of a glass jar and the inner diameter of its iron lid are both 760 mmmm at room temperature (20.0 ∘C).
What will be the size of the mismatch between the lid and the jar if the lid is briefly held under hot water until its temperature rises to 62.5 ∘C, without changing the temperature of the glass? Use the coefficient of linear expansion for iron α= 1.2×10^−5 K^−1.
Express answer in millimeters.
