Recorded sources
8 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that metal expands when heated?

Yes. Multiple reference sources state directly that metals expand when heated, including a textbook example and a Wikipedia passage on power lines. The remaining relevant items discuss the same expansion in narrower contexts such as a heated disk or bimetallic strip.
