Ans : Thermal expansion:

The expansion of a substance on heating is called, the thermal expansion of that
w
substance.
Fitting the iron rim on the wooden wheel
i. The diameter of the iron ring is slightly less than that of the wooden wheel.
w
ii. So, it cannot be easily slipped on from the rim of wooden wheel.
iii. The iron ring is, therefore, first heated to a higher temperature so that it expands
in size and the hot ring is then easily slipped over to the rim of the wooden wheel.
w
iv. Cold water is now poured on the iron ring so that it contracts in size and holds the
wooden wheel tightly.
Rivetting
i. Rivets are used to join two steel plates together.
ii. Hot rivet is driven through the hole in the plates.
iii. One end of the rivet is hammered to form a new rivet head.
iv. When cooled, the rivet will contract and hold the two plates tightly together.

Cracking of a thick glass tumbler

i. Glass is a poor conductor of heat.
ii. When hot liquid is poured into the tumbler, the inner surface of the tumbler
becomes hot and expands while the outer surface remains at the room temperature
and does not expand.
iii. Due to this unequal expansion, the tumbler cracks.
X. Questions based on Higher order thinking skills:
om
1. When a window is accidentally left open on a winter night, will you feel
uncomfortable because the cold is getting in, or because the heat is escaping from
the room?
Ans : 1. Heat moves to cold. i.e. Heat energy flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.
2. Hot air rises upwards.
.c
Thinking about these two rules of nature will help us see how air moves in and
around our house and how that relates to cooling or heating efficiency.
In the winter, suppose it is 36 degree Celsius inside our house and 22 degree
ks
Celsius outside. If we open a window, the heat will escape from the room. Like
water, heat constantly seeks equilibrium; heat moves to cold until everything is
the same temperature. As the heat is escaping from the room, then the cold air is
getting into the house through tiny gaps around doors.
oo
Therefore, we feel uncomfortable because the heat is escaping from the room,
based on the rule that heat energy flows from higher temperature to lower
temperature.
2. Suppose your normal body temperature were lower than what it is. How would
ab
the sensation of hot and cold change?

Ans : If the normal body temperature, (37°C or 98.6°F) is lower than what it is, then it is
called hypothermia.
In such a case, the body feels cold sensation. When we are too cold, our blood
ur
vessels narrow. This reduces blood flow to our skin to save body heat. We may start
to shiver. When the muscles tremble this way, it helps to make more heat.
Hypothermia can be serious one or even deadly. Low body temperature usually
happens from being out in cold weather. But it may also be caused by alcohol or drug
.s
use, going into shock, or certain disorders such as diabetes or low thyroid.
A low body temperature may occur with an infection. This is most common in
newborns, older adults, or people who are frail. A very bad infection may also cause
w
an abnormal low body temperature.

3. If you heat a circular disk with a hole, what change do you expect in the diameter
of the hole? Remember that the effect of heating increases the separation between
w
any pair of particles.

Ans : Many of us “expect” that diameter of hole will decrease, because circular disk is free
to expand in all directions as well. Note that expansion of metal due to heating is not
w
like gas spreading out wherever space is available. Correct way to think about it, is
as follows: Hole size is irrelevant in this case. So we can think that hole is very large.
If we carve hole so large such that it’s radius is slightly less than that of circular disk
itself, then we will have a ring. It is obvious that radius of ring will increase, as atoms
have more energy so there oscillation amplitude will increase. As diameter of ring
increases, diameter of hole will also increase.
For example, if you want to insert one hallow pipe inside another hallow pipe of same
diameter, just heat any one and insert the second one into heated pipe. This explains
answer in easy way. So it says that diameter will increase with increasing temperature.
