A bimetallic strip is made of aluminium ...

A bimetallic strip is made of aluminium and steel `(alpha_(Al)gtalpha_(steel)`. On heating, the strip will

A

remains strsaight

B

get twisted

C

will bend with aluminium on concave side

D

will bend with steel on concave side

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As `alpha_(Al) gt alpha_("steel")` aluminium will expand more. So it should have large radius of curvature. Hence, aluminium will be on convex side.
