A thin aluminum plate has a surface area of 1.500m at 20ºC. What will be its surface area when it is cooled to -20ºC? (Take the linear expansivity of aluminum to be 2.5 x 10-5k-1).
A quantity of gas occupies a certain volume when the temperature is -73oC and the pressure is 1.5 atmospheres. If the pressure is increased to 4.5 atmospheres and the volume is halved at the same time, what will be the new temperature of the gas?
