The Concorde's exterior is made of aluminum, which has a coefficient of linear expansion of 24  10-6K-1. At 15C, the Concorde measures 62.1 m in length.
 
  When the plane is in flight, friction with the air increases the temperature of the exterior skin to 200C. What is the change in the length of the outer skin of the Concorde?
  A)
 
  20 cm
 
  B)
 
  24 cm
 
  C)
 
  28 cm
 
  D)
 
  32 cm
 
  E)
 
  36 cm

Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Yes, during an inelastic collision potential energy (such as chemical or nuclear) can be released. In which case the total kinetic energy after the interaction can be greater than the initial kinetic energy.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
