Serway & Jewett β Temperature: Problem 37
The rectangular plate shown in Figure P18.37 has an area \(A_i\) equal to \(\ell w\). If the temperature increases by \(\Delta T\), each dimension increases according to Equation 18.5, where \(\alpha\) is the average coefficient of linear expansion. (a) Show that the increase in area is \(\Delta A = 2\alpha A_i \Delta T\). (b) What approximation does this expression assume?
