An engineer works in an automobile company where engines are designed. You are asked to design brass-based pistons which will slide into steel cylinders. The engine in which the pistons will be used will operate between 20 ° C and 150 ° C. A. If the engine reaches a temperature of 150 ° C and the diameter of the pistons at 20 ° C is 25,000 cm, what minimum diameter should the cylinders initially have for the pistons to operate correctly, that is, not to bind? (Work with 5 significant figures) take the following into account: ?laton=2,0×10-5(℃)-1 , ?acero=1,2×10-5(℃)-1
