Bulk Stress Due to a Temperature Increase.
(a) Prove that. if an object under pressure has its temperature raised but is not allowed to expand, the increase in pressure is Δp = BβΔT Where the bulk modulus B and the average coefficient of volume expansion β are both assumed positive and constant.
(b) What pressure is necessary to prevent a steel block from expanding when its temperature is increased from 20.0°C to 35.0°C?
