(II) It is observed that 55.50 mL of water at 20°C completely fills a container to the brim. When the container and the water are heated to 60°C, 0.35 g of water is lost. ( a ) What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the container? ( b ) What is the most likely material of the container? Density of water at 60°C is 0.98324 g/mL.

A 0.20 gallon automobile gasoline tank is filled exactly to the top at 00F just before the automobile is parked in a garage where the temperature is maintained at 700How much gasoline is lost due to expansion as the car warms up? Assume the coefficient of volume expansion of gasoline to be 0.0012/0 C.
Soon after the Earth formed, heat released by the decay of radioactive elements raised the average internal temperature from 300 to 3000 K, at about which value it remains today. Assuming an average coefficient of volume expansion of 3.0 x 10-5 K -1 , by how much has the radius of the Earth increased since its formation? (Let r = 6400km be the present radius of the Earth.)
A metallic axle with a diameter of 20mm has to be fitted into a wheel which has a circular holeat its center with diameter 18.5mm. To fit the axle into the hole, the axle is dipped into liquidnitrogen at a temperature of -200°C. Calculate the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal.
