It's one of the even numbered questions in the back of my text with no solution so I found that one online. But try as I might (and I'm very new to math and physics so could easily be missing something here) I can't get 1.83 x 10(^-4)(88) 128.56 to equal 0.0207... I get 2.07 and like you said...
Homework Statement
Here is the question:
A glass tube of radius 0.8cm contains liquid mercury to a depth of 64.0cm at 120C. Find the depth of the mercury column at 1000C.Assume that the linear expansion coefficient of the glass is 10X10-6K-1 and the linear expansion coefficient of mercury...
