A large steel wheel is to be fitted on to a shaft of the same material. At 27 ^(@) C , the outer diameter of the shaft is 8.70 cm and the diameter of the central hole in the wheel is 8.69 cm. The shaft is cooled using dry Icel. At what temperature of the shaft does the wheel slip on the shaft? Assume coefficient of linear expansion of the steel to be constant over the required temperature range: alpha_("steel ") = 1.20 xx 10^(-5) K^(-1) .
