An iron tyre is to be fitted onto a wooden wheel $1 \, m$ in diameter. The diameter of the tyre is $6 \, mm$ smaller than that of the wheel. The tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of ........ $^oC$ (the coefficient of cubical expansion of iron is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \, ^oC^{-1}$).
