A glass window is to be fit in an aluminium frame. The temperature on the working day is 40∘C and the glass window measures exactly 20 c m × 30 cm. What should be the size of the aluminium frame so that there is no stress on the glass in winter even if the temperature drops to 0∘ C ? Coefficients of linear expansion for glass and aluminium are 9.0×10−6 ∘C−1 and 24×10−6 ∘C−1 respectively. |
