A bimetallic strip of thickness d and length `L` is clamped at one end at temperature `t_(1)`. Find the radius of curvature of the strip if it consists of two different metals of expansivity `alpha_(1)` and `alpha_(2) (alpha_(1) gt alpha_(2)`) when its temperature rises to `t_(2) "^(@)C`.

When a strip made or iron (alpha_(1)) and copper (alpha_(2)),(alpha_(2) gt alpha_(1)) is heated

When a strip made or iron (alpha_(1)) and copper (alpha_(2)),(alpha_(2) gt alpha_(1)) is heated

Two metal strips, each of length l and thickness d at temperature T_(0) are riveted together so that their ends coincide. One strip is made of metal A having a linear coefficient alpha_(B) where alpha_(A)gtalpha_(B) . When this bimetallic-strip is heated to a temperature (T_(0)+DeltaT) , one strip becomes longer than the other and the bimetallic strip bends into an arc of a circle. What is the radius of curvature R of the strip ?

The coefficient of linear expansion varies linearly from alpha_(1) and alpha_(2) in a rod of length l . Find the increase in length when its temperature is increased by DeltaT .

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?

A bimetallic strip is composed of two identical strips, one of steel and other of brass. When the temperature of the strip is raised by Delta T , it bends to form arc of curvature R. If the coefficients of linear expansion of steel and brass are alpha_1 and alpha_2 , respectively, then R is
