Answer:

A bimetallic strip bends so that the steel is on the outside curve.

Explanation:

A bimetallic strip is a combination of two different metals. The linear  coefficient of expansion of various metals are different, depending on their characteristics. For example, when a bimetallic strip of brass and steel are taken, thermal expansion coefficient of brass is more than that of steel.

That implies brass expands more than steel, for a given amount of heat supplied. So brass will curve outward since it becomes longer compared to steel. Steel will curve inwards.

Similarly, for cooling process where a drop in the temperature occurs, brass contracts more compared to steel and so Steel will be on outside curve.

What will happen to the absorption and/or emission spectral lines of an object moving away from Earth at high speed?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Explanation:

When the absorption or emission lines of a moving object away from from the earth at very high speed then the spectral lines  will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.This effect can be easily understand by Doppler effect..

So the our option c is correct.

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

A light spring has a force constant of 70 N/m and is used to pull a 10 kg box on a horizontal frictionless surface. If the box h
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

82.4 cm

Explanation:

∑F = ma

kx cos θ = ma

x = ma / (k cos θ)

x = (10 kg) (5 m/s²) / (70 N/m cos 30.0°)

x = 0.824 m

x = 82.4 cm
