Suppose due to a bad break of your femur, you require theinsertion of a titanium rod to help the fracture heal. Thecoefficient of linear expansion for titanium is α = 8.60 × 10−6K−1, and the length of the rod when it is in equilibrium with theleg bone and muscle at 37.0°C is 4.20 cm. How much shorter was therod at room temperature (20.0°C)?
