Question

A circular tire of 1.2 m in diameter must be attached to a steel rim of the same diameter. In order to be able to adjust it, you want to heat up the tire until its radius is 5 mm greater than that of the rim. Knowing that the ambient temperature is 20⁰C and its coefficient of linear expansion is 4.8x10^-4⁰C^-1, calculate the temperature in ⁰C to which the tire must be heated to meet the aforementioned conditions.

at-150circ-mathrmc-a-bare-wheel-has-a-diameter-of-30000-mathrmcm-and-the-inside-diameter-of-its-stee

At $15.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, a bare wheel has a diameter of $30.000 \mathrm{~cm}$, and the inside diameter of its steel rim is $29.930 \mathrm{~cm}$. To what temperature must the rim be heated so as to slip over the wheel? For this type of steel, $\alpha=1.10 \times 10^{-5}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}$.

An iron tyre is to be fitted onto a wooden wheel $1.0 \mathrm{~m}$ in diameter. The diameter of the tyre is $6 \mathrm{~mm}$ smaller than that of whell. The tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of (coefficient of volume expansion of iron is $3.6 \times 10^{-5}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}$ ) (a) $167^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ (b) $334^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ (c) $500^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ (d) $1000^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
