20.0.0. AREA EXPANSIVITY:
Area expansivity is the increase in area per unit area of a substance for every one degree Celsius/ kelvin rise in temperature.
UNIT OF AREA EXPANSIVITY:
The unit of area expansivity is per degree Celsius (°C⅃−¹) or per kelvin ( K−¹ )
FORMULAR FOR CALCULATING AREA EXPANSIVITY:
Area expansivity ß = ∆ Area / ( original area* ∆θ )
Area expansivity ß = change in area / ( original area* temperature change)
Area expansivity ß = increase in area / ( original area * temperature change )
Area expansivity ß = ( final area - initial area ) / ( original area * temperature change)
Area expansivity ß = ( A₂ - A₁ ) / ( A₁ * ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) )
ß = ( A₂ - A₁ ) / ( A₁ *∆θ )
ß * A₁ *∆θ = A₂ - A₁
ß * A₁ *∆θ + A₁ = A₂ ( Collect like terms together )
A₁ ( ß *∆θ + 1 ) = A₂ ( factorize A₁ )
ß *∆θ + 1 = A₂ / A₁
A₁ is the initial or original area of the object at temperature θ₁
A₂ is the final area or new area at temperature θ₂
∆θ = θ₂ - θ₁. It is called temperature change or change in temperature.
ß Is the area expansivity or superficial expansivity of the material. Its unit is per kelvin.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LINEAR AND AREA EXPANSIVITY:
Area expansivity = 2 * Linear expansivity
ß = 2 * ∝
DERIVATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LINEAR EXPANSIVITY AND AREA EXPANSIVITY:
Let us consider a sheet of metal of length l and breadth b. Let the initial length be l₁ and the initial breadth be b₁. Let the final length be l₂ and the final breadth be b₂ after the metal is heated through a temperature change of θ.
Let the initial area of the metal be A₁ = l₁*b₁
Let the final area of the metal be A₂ = l₂*b₂
Then,
From the formula of linear expansivity ,
l₂ = l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
b₂ = b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that Area = l * b.
Therefore,
A₁ = l₁*b₁
A₂ = l₂*b₂ .
A₂ =l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
A₂ = l₁* b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
A₂ = l₁* b₁ ((∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 1 * (∝∆θ + 1 ) )
Let us open the brackets, then we will get,
A₂ = l₁* b₁ (∝²(∆θ)² + ∝∆θ + ∝∆θ + 1 )
A₂ = l₁* b₁ (∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +1 )
A₂ = A₁(∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that ,
A₂ = A₁ ( ß *∆θ + 1 )
Let us substitute for A₂ in the formula above. Then we will get,
A₁ ( ß *∆θ + 1 ) = A₁(∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ + 1 )
ß *∆θ + 1 = ∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ + 1 ( A₁ canceled A₁and the brackets are removed )
ß *∆θ = ∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ ( 1 cancelled 1 )
At this point, ∝tends to zero because its value is from 0.0000... Upward. Therefore, ∝² is approximately zero. I.e. ∝² = 0.
Therefore, we will put zero in the place of ∝²,then we will get,
ß *∆θ = 0 * (∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ
ß *∆θ = 0 + 2∝∆θ ( anything multiply by zero is zero )
ß *∆θ = 2∝∆θ
ß = 2∝ ( ∆θ cancelled ∆θ )
Which shows that,
Area expansivity = 2 times Linear expansivity

Let the final area of the metal be A₂ = l₂*b₂
Then,
From the formula of linear expansivity ,
l₂ = l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
b₂ = b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that Area = l * b.
Therefore,
A₁ = l₁*b₁
A₂ = l₂*b₂ .
A₂ =l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
A₂ = l₁* b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
A₂ = l₁* b₁ ((∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 1 * (∝∆θ + 1 ) )
Let us open the brackets, then we will get,

A₂ = l₁* b₁ (∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +1 )
A₂ = A₁(∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that ,
A₂ = A₁ ( ß *∆θ + 1 )
Let us substitute for A₂ in the formula above. Then we will get,

Cubic / volume expansivity is the increase in volume per unit volume of a substance for every one degree Celsius rise in temperature.
FORMULA FOR CALCULATING VOLUME EXPANSIVITY:
Volume expansivity = ∆V / ( original volume * ∆θ )
Volume expansivity = Change in volume / ( original volume * temperature change )
Volume expansivity = increase In Volume / ( original volume * temperature change )
Volume expansivity = ( final volume - original volume) / ( original volume * ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) )
Volume expansivity = ( V₂ - V₁ ) / ( V₁ * ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) )
Volume expansivity ( ϒ) = ( V₂ - V₁ ) / ( V₁ * ∆θ )
Volume expansivity ( ϒ) = ( V₂ - V₁ ) / ( V₁ * ∆θ )
ϒ = ( V₂ - V₁ ) / ( V₁ * ∆θ )
ϒ * V₁ * ∆θ = V₂ - V₁
ϒ * V₁ * ∆θ + V₁ = V₂ ( Collect like terms together )
V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 ) = V₂ ( Factorize V₁ )
( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 ) = V₂ / V₁
V₁ is the initial/ original volume at temperature θ₁
V₂ is the final volume or new volume at temperature θ₂
θ₁ is Initial temperature

ϒ = 3*∝
ϒ = 3*∝
DERIVATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LINEAR EXPANSIVITY AND CUBIC EXPANSIVITY:
Let us consider a sheet of metal of length l , breadth b and height h.Let the initial length be l₁ , the initial breadth be b₁ and the initial height be h₁. Let the final length be l₂ , the final breadth be b₂ and the final height be h₂, after the metal is heated through a temperature change of θ.
Let the initial volume of the metal be V₁ = l₁*b₁*h₁
Let the final volume of the metal be V₂ = l₂*b₂*h₂
Then,
From the formula of linear expansivity ,
l₂ = l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
b₂ = b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
h₂ = h₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that Volume = l * b*h
Therefore,
V₁ = l₁*b₁*h₁
V₂ = l₂*b₂ *h₂
V₂ =l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * h₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁ ((∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 1 * (∝∆θ + 1 ) ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
Let us open the brackets, then we will get,
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝²(∆θ)² + ∝∆θ + ∝∆θ + 1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝²(∆θ)² * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 2∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) +1* (∝∆θ + 1 ) )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝³(∆θ)³ +∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝³(∆θ)³ +∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = V₁(∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 )
Recall that ,
V₂ = V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 )
Let us substitute for V₂ in the formula above. Then we will get,
V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 ) = V₁(∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 )
ϒ * ∆θ + 1 = ∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 (V₁ canceled V₁ and the brackets are removed )
ϒ * ∆θ = ∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ ( 1 cancelled 1 )
At this point,∝tends to zero because its value is from 0.0000... Upward. Therefore,∝² and ∝³ are approximately zero. I.e. ∝² and ∝³ are = 0.
Therefore, we will put zero in the place of ∝² and ∝³. Then we will get,
ϒ * ∆θ = 0*(∆θ)³ + 2*0*(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ
ϒ * ∆θ = 0 + 0 + 3∝∆θ
ϒ * ∆θ = 3∝∆θ
ϒ = 3∝ ( ∆θ cancelled. ∆θ )

Let us consider a sheet of metal of length l , breadth b and height h.Let the initial length be l₁ , the initial breadth be b₁ and the initial height be h₁. Let the final length be l₂ , the final breadth be b₂ and the final height be h₂, after the metal is heated through a temperature change of θ.
Let the initial volume of the metal be V₁ = l₁*b₁*h₁
Let the final volume of the metal be V₂ = l₂*b₂*h₂
Then,
From the formula of linear expansivity ,
l₂ = l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
b₂ = b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
h₂ = h₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )
Recall that Volume = l * b*h
Therefore,
V₁ = l₁*b₁*h₁
V₂ = l₂*b₂ *h₂
V₂ =l₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * b₁ (∝∆θ + 1 ) * h₁ (∝∆θ + 1 )

V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁ ((∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 1 * (∝∆θ + 1 ) ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
Let us open the brackets, then we will get,

V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +1 ) * (∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝²(∆θ)² * (∝∆θ + 1 ) + 2∝∆θ * (∝∆θ + 1 ) +1* (∝∆θ + 1 ) )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝³(∆θ)³ +∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝∆θ +∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = l₁* b₁*h₁(∝³(∆θ)³ +∝²(∆θ)² + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ + 1 )
V₂ = V₁(∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 )
Recall that ,
V₂ = V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 )
Let us substitute for V₂ in the formula above. Then we will get,
V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 ) = V₁(∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 )
ϒ * ∆θ + 1 = ∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ+1 (V₁ canceled V₁ and the brackets are removed )
ϒ * ∆θ = ∝³(∆θ)³ + 2∝²(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ ( 1 cancelled 1 )
At this point,∝tends to zero because its value is from 0.0000... Upward. Therefore,∝² and ∝³ are approximately zero. I.e. ∝² and ∝³ are = 0.
Therefore, we will put zero in the place of ∝² and ∝³. Then we will get,
ϒ * ∆θ = 0*(∆θ)³ + 2*0*(∆θ)² + 3∝∆θ
ϒ * ∆θ = 0 + 0 + 3∝∆θ

APPLICATION OF FORMULA IN SOLVING PROBLEMS:
EXAMPLES:
1. A piece of mass 170kg has its temperature raised from 0°C to 30°C. Calculate its increase in volume, given the density of brass at 0°C at 8.5 x 103 kgm-³ and its cubic expansivity as 57 x 10−⁴K-¹.
SOLUTION:
Data given in the question:
mass = 170kg, initial temperature θ₁= 0°C, final temperature θ₂ = 30°C
density of brass at 0°C = 8.5 x 10³ kgm-³, cubic expansivity = 57 x 10−⁴K-¹.
∆θ = θ₂ - θ₁ = 30° - 0° = 30°
Note:
In this question, you are to calculate the increase in volume. You must first calculate the volume V₂ at temperature 30°C. The volume V₁ at temperature 0°C is not given. But the mass and density of the object at temperature 0°Ç is given. Use these mass and the density of the object to calculate the volume V₁ at temperature 0°C.
Therefore,
Density = mass / volume
8.5 x 10³ = 170 / Volume
Volume = 170 / 8.5 x 10³
Volume = 0.02m³
Volume V₁ = 0.02m³
Now that we have calculated V₁ , we will then calculate V₂ before we will be able to calculate the rise in volume.
Therefore,

V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 ) = V₂
Substitution:
0.02 ( 57 x 10−⁴* 30 + 1 ) = V₂
1.14e−6 + 0.02 = V₂ ➡ V₂ = 0.02000114m³

We will use the length to first calculate the initial volume of the cube at 10°C. After that, we will calculate the volume of the cube at 60°C and thereafter calculate the increase in volume of the cube.

Cubic expansivity = 3 * 1.2 x 10−⁴
Cubic expansivity = 0.000036 K−¹
Formula: V₂ = V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 )
Substitution: V₂ = 1000 ( 0.000036 * 50 + 1 )
V₂ = 1000 ( 0.0018 + 1 )
V₂ = 1000 ( 1.0018)

linear expansivity = 0.20 x10-⁴K-¹, cubic expansivity = 3 * Linear expansivity
cubic expansivity = 3 * 0.20 x10-⁴K-¹ = 0.6 x10-⁴K-¹
Formula: V₂ = V₁ ( ϒ * ∆θ + 1 )
Substitution: V₂ = 1000( 0.6 x10-⁴ * 40 + 1 )
V₂ = 1000( 0.0024 + 1 )
V₂ = 1000 ( 1.0024 )
