E) An insulated pipe is connected to two tanks with liquid at different temperatures. The pipe is 5m long and is initially at a temperature of 20C. Liquid is released from the hot tank and flows through the pipe to the cooler tank. After the liquid has been released the pipe's temperature rises to 160C. The coefficient of linear expansion of the pipe material is 1510-6K. Calculate the change in length of the pipe if it is free to expand.
