A piece of brass of mass 170kg has its temperature raised from 0oC to 30oC. Calculate its increase in volume, given the density of brass at 0oC as 8.5 x 103kgm3 and its cubic expansivity as 5.7 x 10-1k1

A.

3.4 x 10-5m3

B.

4.3 x 10-5m3

C.

3.4 x 10-5m3

D.

3.4 x 10-3m3

E.

3.4 x 10-2m3

Correct answer is C

V = mp=1708.5x103 = 0.02

= ΔδVVδT

δV = Δ x V x δT

= 5.7 x 10-5 x 0,02 x 30

= 0 3.42 x 10-5
