they are both very cold. The coefficient of linear expansion of wood is about
5 × 106 K1. Which ruler should you use to make the most accurate length

and one copper strip, and suppose the bimetallic strip is curled in the shape of a
circular arc with the steel strip on the outside. If the temperature of the strip is

Thermal Properties and Processes

Conceptual Problems

1 • Why does the mercury level of a thermometer first decrease slightly when the thermometer is first placed in warm water?

Determine the Concept The glass bulb warms and expands first, before the

mercury warms and expands.

2 • A large sheet of metal has a hole cut in the middle of it. When the sheet is heated, the area of the hole will ( a ) not change, ( b ) always increase, ( c ) always decrease, ( d ) increase if the hole is not in the exact center of the sheet, ( e ) decrease only if the hole is in the exact center of the sheet.

Determine the Concept The heating of the sheet causes the average separation of

its molecules to increase. The consequence of this increased separation is that the

area of the hole always increases. ( b ) is correct.

3 • [SSM] Why is it a bad idea to place a tightly sealed glass bottle that is completely full of water, into your kitchen freezer in order to make ice?

Determine the Concept Water expands greatly as it freezes. If a sealed glass bottle full of water is placed in a freezer, as the water freezes there will be no room for the expansion to take place. The bottle will be broken.

4 • The windows of your physics laboratory are left open on a night when the temperature of the outside dropped well below freezing. A steel ruler and a wooden ruler were left on the window sill, and when you arrive in the morning they are both very cold. The coefficient of linear expansion of wood is about 5 × 10 −^6 K−^1. Which ruler should you use to make the most accurate length measurements? Explain your answer.

Determine the Concept You should use the wooden ruler. Because the coefficient of expansion for wood is about half that for metal, the metal ruler will have shrunk considerably more than will have the wooden ruler.

5 • Bimetallic strips are used both for thermostats and for electrical circuit breakers. A bimetallic strip consists of a pair of thin strips of metal that have different coefficients of linear expansion and are bonded together to form one doubly thick strip. Suppose a bimetallic strip is constructed out of one steel strip and one copper strip, and suppose the bimetallic strip is curled in the shape of a circular arc with the steel strip on the outside. If the temperature of the strip is decreased, will the strip straighten out or curl more tightly?

1864 Chapter 20

Determine the Concept The strip will curl more tightly. Because the coefficient of linear expansion for copper (17 × 10 −^6 K−^1 ) is greater than the coefficient of linear expansion for steel (11 × 10 −^6 K−^1 ), the length of the copper strip will decrease more than the length of the steel strip−resulting in a tighter curl.

6 • Metal A has a coefficient of linear expansion that is three times the coefficient of linear expansion of metal B. How do their coefficients of volume

expansion β compare? ( a ) βA = βB , ( b ) βA = 3 βB , ( c ) βA = 6 βB , ( d ) βA = 9 βB ,

( e ) You cannot tell from the data given.

Determine the Concept We know that the coefficient of volume expansion is three times the coefficient of linear expansion and so can use this fact to express

the ratio of β Ato β B.

Express the coefficient of volume expansion of metal A in terms of its coefficient of linear expansion:

β A = 3 α A

Express the coefficient of volume expansion of metal B in terms of its coefficient of linear expansion:

β B = 3 α B

Dividing the first of these equations by the second yields: (^) B

Because αA = 3 αB:

7 • The summit of Mount Rainier is 14 410 ft above sea level. Mountaineers say that you cannot hard boil an egg at the summit. This statement is true because at the summit of Mount Rainier ( a ) the air temperature is too low to boil water, ( b ) the air pressure is too low for alcohol fuel to burn, ( c ) the temperature of boiling water is not hot enough to hard boil the egg, ( d ) the oxygen content of the air is too low to support combustion, ( e ) eggs always break in climbers′ backpacks.

Determine the Concept Actually, an egg can be hard boiled, but it takes quite a bit longer than at sea level. ( c ) is the best response.

8 • Which gases in Table 20-3 cannot be condensed by applying pressure at 20ºC? Explain your answer.

Determine the Concept Gases that cannot be liquefied by applying pressure at 20 °C are those for which T c < 293 K. These are He, Ar, Ne, H 2 , O 2 , NO.

the savings realized by cooling it down in the evening and keeping it cool throughout the night?

Determine the Concept The amount of heat lost by the house is proportional to the difference between the temperature inside the house and that of the outside air. Hence, the rate at which the house loses heat (that must be replaced by the furnace) is greater at night when the temperature of the house is kept high than when it is allowed to cool down.

13 •• [SSM] Two solid cylinders made of materials A and B have the same lengths; their diameters are related by d A = 2 d B. When the same temperature difference is maintained between the ends of the cylinders, they conduct heat at the same rate. Their thermal conductivities are therefore related by which of the following equations? ( a ) k A = k B/4, ( b ) k A = k B/2, ( c ) k A = k B, ( d ) k A = 2 k B, ( e ) k A = 4 k BB

Picture the Problem The rate at which heat is conducted through a cylinder is given by I = dQ / dt = kA Δ Tx (see Equation 20-7) where A is the cross-

sectional area of the cylinder.

Determine the Concept We can use the expression for the heat current in a conductor, Equation 20-7, to relate the heat current in each cylinder to its thermal conductivity, cross-sectional area, temperature difference, and length.

15 •• If you feel the inside of a single pane window during a very cold day, it is cold, even though the room temperature can be quite comfortable. Assuming the room temperature is 20.0°C and the outside temperature is 5.0°C, Construct a plot of temperature versus position starting from a point 5.0 m in behind the window (inside the room) and ending at a point 5.0 m in front of the window. Explain the heat transfer mechanisms that occur along this path.

Determine the Concept The temperatures on both sides of the glass are almost the same. Because glass is an excellent conductor of heat, there need not be a huge temperature difference. Thus the temperature must drop quickly as you near the pane on the warm side and the same on the outside. This is sketched qualitatively in the following diagram. Convection and radiation are primarily responsible for heat transfer on the inside and outside, and it is mainly conduction through the glass. Conduction through the interior and exterior air is minimal. T , ° C

16 •• During the thermal retrofitting of many older homes in California, it was found that the 3.5-in-deep spaces between the wallboards and the outer sheathing were filled with just air (no insulation). Filling the space with insulating material certainly reduces heating and cooling costs; although, the insulating material is a better conductor of heat than air is. Explain why adding the insulation is a good idea.

Determine the Concept The tradeoff is the reduction of convection cells between the walls by putting in the insulating material, versus a slight increase in conductivity. The net reduction in convection results in a higher R value.

19 •• [SSM] Estimate the thermal conductivity of human skin.

Picture the Problem We can use the thermal current equation for the thermal conductivity of the skin. If we model a human body as a rectangular parallelepiped that is 1.5 m high × 7 cm thick × 50 cm wide, then its surface area is about 1.8 m^2. We’ll also assume that a typical human, while resting, produces energy at the rate of 120 W, that normal internal and external temperatures are 33 °C and 37°C, respectively, and that an average skin thickness is 1.0 mm.

20 •• You are visiting Finland with a college friend and have met some Finnish friends. They talk you into taking part in a traditional Finnish after-sauna exercise which consists of leaving the sauna, wearing only a bathing suit, and running out into the mid-winter Finnish air. Estimate the rate at which you initially lose energy to the cold air. Compare this rate of initial energy loss to the resting metabolic rate of a typical human under normal temperature conditions. Explain the difference.

Picture the Problem We can use the Stefan-Boltzmann law to estimate the rate at which you lose energy when you first step out of the sauna. If we model a human body as a rectangular parallelepiped that is 1.5 m high × 7 cm thick × 50 cm wide, then its surface area is about 1.8 m^2. Assume that your skin temperature is initially 37 °C (310 K), that the mid-winter outside temperature is − 10 °C (263 K), and that the emissivity of your skin is 1.

Use the Stefan-Boltzmann law to express the net rate at which you radiate energy to the cold air:

P net (^) =εσ A^ ( T^ skin^4 − T air^4 )

Substitute numerical values and evaluate P net:

( ) ( 1. 8 m ) (( 310 K) ( 263 K)) 450 W m K

W

net 1 5.^67010824 ⎟^24 −^4 = ⎠

P = × −

This result is almost four times greater than the basal metabolic rate of 120 W. We can understand the difference in terms of the temperature of your skin when you first step out of the sauna and the fact that radiation loses are dependent on the fourth power of the absolute temperature.

Remarks: The emissivity of your skin is, in fact, very close to 1.

21 •• Estimate the rate of heat conduction through a 2.0-in-thick wooden door during a cold winter day in Minnesota. Include the brass doorknob. What is the ratio of the heat that escapes through the doorknob to the heat that escapes through the whole door? What is the total overall R -factor for the door, including the knob? The thermal conductivity of brass is 85 W(m ⋅ K).

22 •• Estimate the effective emissivity of Earth, given the following information. The solar constant, which is the intensity of radiation incident on Earth from the Sun, is about 1.37 kW/m^2. Seventy percent of this energy is absorbed by Earth, and Earth’s average surface temperature is 288 K. (Assume that the effective area that is absorbing the light is π R^2 , where R is Earth’s radius, while the blackbody-emission area is 4 π R^2 .)

Picture the Problem The amount of heat radiated by Earth must equal the solar flux from the Sun, or else the temperature on Earth would continually increase. The emissivity of Earth is related to the rate at which it radiates energy into space

by the Stefan-Boltzmann law P r = e σ AT^4.

23 •• Black holes are highly condensed remnants of stars. Some black holes, together with a normal star, form binary systems. In such systems the black hole and the normal star orbit about the center of mass of the system. One way black holes can be detected from Earth is by observing the frictional heating of the atmospheric gases from the normal star that fall into the black hole. These gases can reach temperatures greater than 1.0 × 106 K. Assuming that the falling gas can be modeled as a blackbody radiator, estimate λmax for use in an astronomical detection of a black hole. (Remark: This is in the X-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum.)

Picture the Problem The wavelength at which maximum power is radiated by the gas falling into a black hole is related to its temperature by Wien’s displacement law.

24 ••• Your cabin in northern Michigan has walls that consist of pine logs that have average thicknesses of about 20 cm. You decide to finish the interior of the cabin to improve the look and to increase the insulation of the exterior walls. You choose to buy insulation with an R -factor of 31 to cover the walls. In addition, you cover the insulation with 1.0-in-thick gypsum wallboard. Assuming heat transfer is only due to conduction, estimate the ratio of thermal current through the walls during a cold winter night before the renovation to the thermal current through the walls following the renovation.

Picture the Problem We can use the thermal current equation to find the thermal current per square meter through the walls of the cabin both before and after the walls have been insulated. See Table 20-5 for the R -factor of gypsum wallboard and Table 20-4 for the thermal conductivity of white pine.

26 •• You have inherited your grandfather’s grandfather clock that was calibrated when the temperature of the room was 20ºC. Assume that the pendulum consists of a thin brass rod of negligible mass with a compact heavy bob at its end. ( a ) During a hot day, the temperature is 30ºC, does the clock run fast or slow? Explain. ( b ) How much time does it gain or lose during this day?

Picture the Problem We can determine whether the clock runs fast or slow from the expression for the period of a simple pendulum and the dependence of its length on the temperature. We can use the expression for the period of a simple pendulum and the equation describing its length as a function of temperature to find the time gained or lost in a 24-h period.

What temperature must the copper collar have so that it will just slip on the shaft, assuming the shaft itself remains at 20ºC?
