Determine the coefficient of linear expansion


When the temperature of a "copper" penny (which is not really copper) is raised by 100 C, its diameter increases by 0.18%.

a). What is the coefficient of linear expansion?

b).What is the percent increase in the thickness of the penny?

c). What is the percent increase in the face (flat surface, not the actual face of Lincoln!) of the penny?

d). What is the percent increase in the volume of the penny?

e). What is the percent increase in the mass of the penny?
