A bridge is made with segments of concrete 50 m long. If the linear expansion coefficient is 12 X 10–6 (°C)–1 , how much spacing (in cm) is needed to allow for expansion during an extreme temperature change of 150°F? ANSWER. 5.0 cm PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR CONVERSIONS AND STEPS

Alright Dude, If that worked for you... dont forget to give THUMBS
UP.(that will work for me!)
Please Vote...
If I missed something feel free to leave a comment.
atleast before giving downvote.
and, Thanks for using Chegg- Smarter way to study.

Expansion joints are used to allow for thermal expansion bridges. A steel bridge with a single expansion joint must operate between temperature extremes -50 F and 150 F, the gap in the joint is fully closed and the bridge is 100 m long. The linear expansion coefficient of steel is 12 x 10^-6 (Celcius). What is the gap at -50 F? Express your answer in centimeters.
A concrete bridge is built of 375-cm-long concrete slabs with an expansion joint between them.

A 0.4974 mile long concrete bridge has thermal expansion coefficient of 0.00158 m/K. The summer heat can get up to 48 degrees C, and the winter down to 4 degrees C. What is the overall change in length over the course of a year, in feet? Answer: is 182.58 ft
2. The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 X 10° K'. What is the change in length of a 25-m steel bridge span when it undergoes a temperature of 40 K? 2. The
The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is 12 × 10-6 K-1. What is the change in length of a 25-m steel bridge span when it undergoes a temperature change of 40 K from winter to summer?
A bridge with a steel framework is 500.000 m long on a winter day when the temperature of the steel is 5.0 'C. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion of steel is 11.0x107C. The bridge is built in with the two ends anchored in rock and it has a hinge at its center in case it expands past its original 500.000 m length. y = ? 250.000 m (a) How long is one half of the bridge at a temperature...
006 10.0 points Two concrete spans of a 190 m long bridge are placed end to end so that no room is allowed for expansion T + 20°C FM 190 m If the temperature increases by 20°C, what is the height to which the spans rise when they buckle? Assume the thermal coefficient of expansion is 1.2 x 10 Answer in units of m.
A pair of eyeglass frames are made of an epoxy plastic (coefficient of linear expansion = 1.30 ✕ 10−4°C−1). At room temperature (20.0°C), the frames have circular lens holes 2.37 cm in radius. To what temperature must the frames be heated if lenses 2.38 cm in radius are to be inserted into them? °C
