Chapter 17, Problem 74GP
Estimate the percent difference in the density of iron at STP, and when it is a solid deep in the Earth where the temperature is 2000°C and under 5000 atm of pressure. Assume the bulk modulus (90 × 109 N/m2) and the coefficient of volume expansion do not vary with temperature and are the same as at STP.

The titanium shell of an SR-71 airplane would expand when flying at a speed exceeding 3 times the speed of sound. If the skin of the plane is 400 degrees C and the linear coefficient of expansion for titanium is 5x10 -6 /C when flying at 3 times the speed of sound, how much would a 10-meter long (originally at 0C) rod portion (1-dimension) of the airplane expand?
Show that the coefficient of area expansion, (∆A/A)/∆T, of a rectangular sheet of the solid is twice its linear expansivity, α1.
A student foolishly attempts to stop a steel bar, of length L = 1 m and at a temperature of 20ºC, from thermally expanding by attaching it to a wooden support with a nail at each end. Steel's Young's modulus is Y = 1.1 × 1011 N/m2 and it's linear thermal expansion coefficient is α = 13 × 10-6 1/C. Randomized Variables
Y = 1.1 × 1011 N/m2α = 13 × 10-6 1/C
What is the volue of the stress, in pascals, that develops due to a rise of temprature to 21 C?
Assuming the nails have a cross- sectional area of A= 10^-5 m^2 all of which is perpendicular to the stress force from the bar, what is the force acting on each due to that temperature rise?

For those parameters, determine the rms velocity and the most probable speed, as well as the values of f(v) for each of these values. Compare these values with the graph in Problem 28. 28. Plot the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution function for a gas composed of nitrogen molecules (N2) at a temperature of 295 K. Identify the points on the curve that have a value of half the maximum value. Estimate these speeds, which represent the range of speeds most of the molecules are likely to have. The mass of a nitrogen molecule is 4.68 1026 kg. Equation 20.18 can be used to find the rms velocity given the temperature, Boltzmanns constant, and the mass of the atom or molecule. The mass of a nitrogen molecule is 4.68 1026 kg. vrms=3kBTm=3(1.381023J/K)4.681026kg=511m/s Using the results of Problem 28 and the rms velocity, we can calculate the value of f(v). f(vrms) = (3.11 108)(511)2 e(5.75106(511)2) = 0.00181 The most probable speed, for which this function has its maximum value, is given by Equation 20.20. vmp=2kBTm=2(1.381023J/K)(295K)4.681026kg=417m/s f(vmp) = (3.11108)(417)2 e(5.75106(417)2) = 0.00199 We plot these points on the speed distribution. The most probable speed is indeed at the peak of the distribution function. Since the function is not symmetric, the rms velocity is somewhat higher than the most probable speed.
