KillGorack / Physics 2010 / A steel sphere sits on top of an aluminum ring. The steel sphere (a = 1.10*10^-5/C°) has a diameter of 4.000 0 cm at 0°C. The aluminum ring (a = 2.40*10^-5/C°) has an inside diameter of 3.9940 cm at 0°C. Closest to which temperature given will the sphere just fall through the ring?

The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.
