Thermal coefficient of copper constant throughout the range


A copper telephone wire has essentially no sag between poles 30 m apart on a winter day when the temperature is -16?C. How much longer is the wire on a summer day when the temperature is 30 ?C? Assume that the thermal coefficient of copper is constant throughout this range at its room temperature value of 1.7 × 10-5 (?C)-1. Answer in units of cm.
