A vertical glass tube of length L = 1.280000 m is half filled with a liquid at 20.000 000 degrees C. How much will the height of the liquid column change when the tube and liquid are heated to 30.000000 degrees C? Use coefficients alpha_glass = 1.000 000 x 10^-5/K and Beta_liquid = 4.000 000 x 10^-5/K
