A bimetallic strip is formed out of two identical strips one of copper and the other of brass. The co-efficients of linear expansion of the two metals are alpha_(C) and alpha_(B) . On heating, the the strip bends to form an are of radius of curvature R . Then R is

A bimetallic strip is formed out of two identical strips one of copper and the other of brass. The coefficients of linear expansion of the strip goes up by DeltaT and the strip bends to from an arc of radius of curvature R. Then R is.

A bimetalic strip is made of two strips A and B, having co-efficeint of linear expansion as alpha_(A) and alpha_(B) . If alpha_(A) gt alpha_(B) which of the following describes the behavior fo the metallic strip when heated?

We would like to perpare a scale whose length does not change with temperature. It is proposed to prepare a unit scale f this type whose length remains, say 10 cm. We can use a bimetallic strip made of brass and iron each of different length (both components) would change in such a way that differnece between theri lenght rermain constant. If alpha_(iron) = 1.2 xx 10^(-5)//K and alpha_(brass) = 1.8 xx 10^(-5)//K, what should we take as lenght of each strip ?
