Formula Used
Thermal Expansion Coefficient = Elongation/(Initial Length*Change in Temperature)
α = /(l0*∆T)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Thermal Expansion Coefficient - (Measured in 1 Per Kelvin) - Thermal Expansion Coefficient is a material property that is indicative of the extent to which a material expands upon heating.
Elongation - (Measured in Meter) - The Elongation is change in length due to subjected load.
Initial Length - (Measured in Meter) - Initial Length before the application of load.
Change in Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - The Change in Temperature is the difference between the initial and final temperature.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Elongation: 0.375 Millimeter --> 0.000375 Meter (Check conversion here)
Initial Length: 5000 Millimeter --> 5 Meter (Check conversion here)
Change in Temperature: 50 Kelvin --> 50 Kelvin No Conversion Required
