Zirconium tungstate is an unusual material because its volume shrinks with an increase in temperature for the temperature range 0.3 k to 1050 k (where it decomposes). in fact, the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion is –26.4 × 10–6/k. determine the ratio δv/v0 for the above mentioned temperature range. express your answer in percent.

2.771208%

Explanation:

= Change of volume

= Initial volume

= Change in temperature = (0.3-1050)

= Volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion =

Volumetric expansion of heat is given by

Finding percentage

The ratio of change of volume to initial volume is 2.771208%

the skeletons of most mammals reach a certain size and then stop growing. however, many animals, including some mammals, keep growing throughout their lives. kangaroos, for example, just keep growing and growing until they die. also, the longer an animal lives the greater the chance it might catch some deadly disease.
