What is the volume of a lead ball at 40.00°C if the ball's volume at 78.00°C is 51.00 cm^3? Give your answer to four significant figures. The linear expansion coefficient of lead is 29.00 x 10^- /Cº.

Respuesta :

Answer:[tex]50.831 cm^3[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

Volume of lead ball is [tex]51 cm^3[/tex]

Linear expansion  coefficient of lead is [tex]29\times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C[/tex]

We know [tex]V=V_0\left ( {1+\gamma \left ( \Delta T\right )}\right )[/tex]

Where [tex]V_0[/tex] initial volume

[tex]\gamma [/tex]=Volume expansion coefficient

[tex]\Delta T[/tex]=change in temperature

and [tex]\gamma =3\alpha [/tex]

[tex]V_{70}=V_{40} \left ( 1+\gamma \left ( 78-40\right )\right )[/tex]

[tex]51=V_{40}\left ( 1+87\times 10^{-6}\left ( 38\right )\right )[/tex]

[tex]V_{40}=\frac{51}{1.003306}[/tex]

[tex]V_{40}=50.831 cm^3[/tex]
