The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.
The answer is option D a gallon of gasoline.
Explanation:
A gallon of gasoline has the least chemical energy. The energy content of gallon of gasoline is about 132,000 Btu. The gasoline produced is equivalent in energy terms to 4 kilowatt hours.
Gasoline has chemical potential energy stored in chemical bonds. Gasoline is called as gas or petrol, mixture of volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbons are used as fuel for internal- combustion engines. It is used as solvent for oils and fats.
Gasoline gallon equivalent is the alternative fuel taken to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline.
Answer:
Given: V = 220V, Pmin = 360W, Pmax = 840W
For minimum heating case:
We know that
Pmin = VI
360 = 220 X I
I = 1.63 amp
R = V/I
R = 220/1.63
R = 134.96ohms
For maximum heating case:
We know that
Pmax = VI
840 = 220 X I
I = 3.81 amp
R = V/I
R = 220/3.81
R = 57.74 ohms
Awww im too late but im going to wait and see if he has it
