On a hot day in Jaipur, an oil trucker loaded 40 kL (kilolitres) of diesel fuel. On his way to Shimla, he encounters a temperature drop of 20∘C, where he stopped and delivered the entire load. How many litres did he deliver? The γ for diesel is 9.50 × 10−4/∘C and α for his steel truck is 11 × 10−6/∘C. If you find that the volume has decreased, think about who is paying for the "missing” diesel.
