COEFFICIENT OF LINEAR EXPANSIO
Introduction
Most solid materials expand upon heating and contract when cooled because it undergoes a change in the energy state of its molecules or atoms. According to the atomic perspective, the average vibrational amplitude of an atom increases as the temperature rises. Each material has a property called ¡§coefficient of linear expansion¡¨ that is indicative of the extent to which a material expands upon heating or contracts when cooling. The coefficient of expansion is re …showed first 75 words of 1256 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1256 total…not able to return back to its original temperature or its normal state within a short period of time, even though it was cooled down by running under the water. Another factor was that the thermometer also could not return to the room temperature.
Conclusion
The experiment was luckily conclused fairly similar to the accepted value. However, because only appoximation of datas and other source of errors, the accuracy of the data could be questionable.
