A longer pendulum takes longer to swing. Imagine how long a 100m cable hanging from a crane takes compared to a clock pendulum.

Objects at absolute zero don't emit heat. How cold does cold mean?

Expansivity Copper 16.5 (m/m.K x 10-6) Brass 18.7 (m/m.K x 10-6)
Which one expands more, which side of a curve gets longer?

Do metals expand or contract when heated?

Correct - Celcius and Fahrenheit don't have the same zero point.

If it is an isolated system so that heat can't escape.
Temperature is a measure of the average energy of the molecules, so if heat is added what happens to the energy?
