A thermal tap used in certain apparatus consists of a silica rod which fits tightly inside an Aluminium tube whose internal diameter is 8 mm at 0℃ . When the temperature is raised, the fit is no longer exact. Calculate what change in temperature is necessary to produce a channel whose cross-section is equal to that of a tube of 1 mm internal diameter. Α for silica = 8 × 10 − K − 1 , α for Aluminium = 26 × 10 − K − 1

this age may represent the age of the earth's accretion, of core formation, or of the material from which the earth formed. this dating is based on evidence from radiometric age-dating of meteorite material and is consistent with the radiometric ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.
