Abstract
This chapter discusses problems on temperature and thermal expansion. Different temperature scales and conversion of temperature to different temperature scales are discussed. Problems related to linear, area, and volume thermal expansions and their coefficients of thermal expansion are solved. Both solutions by pencil and paper analysis and computer calculation via wxMaxima are presented.
