ction of itsbulk at 0 that it expands when heated 1° is called its coeffi-cient of cubical expansion, or the cubical coefficient of expan-sion. Evidently fluids would have no coefficient of linearexpansion, but solids would have both.* In the followingexercise we wish to determine the average… … 100°. The changes in length are magnified by the leverp, which reads on the scale S. In this way we can meas-ure the change in length of the rod when heated from 0 to100° and determine the required coefficient. * Suggestion: Give the principles on which such measurementswould be based. 140 HEAT.…
