Question 1

An object with an initial volume of 1 m³ expands to 1.03 m³ when heated from 25°C to 75°C. Calculate the coefficient of volumetric expansion.

💡 Hint: Use the expansion formula to find β after calculating ΔV.

Question 2

A car's fuel tank made of a material with a β of 5 × 10⁻³ °C⁻¹ is filled with 20 gallons of fuel. If the temperature of the fuel increases from 15°C to 35°C, determine the volume increase.

💡 Hint: Convert gallons to cubic meters and remember to use the correct formula.
