Answer

$\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}=0.217\frac{K}{s}$

Work Step by Step

We know that; $v=\alpha L_{\circ}\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}$ This is rearranged as; $\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}=\frac{v}{\alpha L_{\circ}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}=\frac{100\times 10^{-9}}{23\times 10^{-6}(0.02)}=0.217\frac{K}{s}$
