Question

A bimetal plate consists of two materials of different coefficients of thermal expansion . The coeffiecent

Answer 1

Answer:

A bi metal plate consists of two materials of different coefficients of thermal expansion. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the top part of the plate is less than the bottom part. If the temperature of the entire plate increases, then the plate bends up.

Answer 2

The complete question is - A bimetal plate consists of two materials of different coefficients of thermal expansion. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the top part of the plate is less than the bottom part. If the temperature of the entire plate increases, what happens to the plate?

If the temperature of entire plate increases, then the plates will expand.

• Bimetal plate is the plate consisting of two sheets of metal sealed together tightly and indefinitely. Top component has less coefficient of thermal expansion according to situation.
• When the plate is heated two sections will attempt to expand in both directions, but they will expand differently because their expansion coefficients are different. The plates here will expand freely in unrestricted direction.
