Question:

 

_______ expansion makes the Eiffel Tower taller during summers

Solution:

 

·         Thermal expansion makes the Eiffel Tower taller during summers

 

·         Extreme heat causes the metal at the base to expand, increasing the height of the Eiffel Tower.

·         It also causes the top of the tower to tilt away from the sun by up to 7 inches.

·         That's because Steel expands in hot and contracts in cold.

·         So, The Eiffel Tower is six inches taller in summer than winter.
