Sample Solution
The only average coefficient of linear expansion to be within its theoretical range was the aluminum rod. The one with the greatest error percentage was the stainless steel. This error could have been due to the old and faulty equipment. For example, two groups were sharing one steam generator, and the steam was leaking out of the sides, and the rods were not heating up as fast as the other two groups who had their own generator. Also, there could have been error when reading the initial micrometer, because if there is any slight movement of the heat exchanger when attaching the hose from the steam generator, it will change the position on the micrometer. In addition to these errors, if an adequate amount of water was not in the steam generator, the rod would not reach its stabilizing temperature to determine its coefficient of linear expansion.
