Examples from daily life where the expansion of metal by heating is used are:
- This expanding effect can come in convenient if you've ever tried to unscrew a stuck lid off a glass jar. To exacerbate the metal cover, simply run some hot water over it for a few seconds. This will cause the lid to expand somewhat, making it simpler to remove.
- When a liquid is heated, it expands and can ascend up a tube. Thermometers employ the expansion of liquid-like mercury or alcohol to detect temperature on a calibrated scale.
- After a lengthy travel, the air in the automobile tire warms up, increasing the pressure.
- Train tracks are arranged in segments, with a little space between them. That pause in the train's rhythm is audible. The space allows the tracks to expand and compress without placing undue strain on one another.
