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.

Please help me with this question :
aalyn [17]

Answer:

  • 514.27 ( wavelength )

the color is green

  • 602.93 nm  ( orange color )

the observation is that there is a change of visible color

Explanation:

A) wavelength of visible light that is most strongly reflected from a point on a soap

refraction n = 1.33

wall thickness (t) = 290 nm

2nt = (2m +1 ) ∝/2 -----equation 1

note when m = 0

therefore ∝ =  4nt/ 1 = 4 * 1.33 * 290 = 1542.8nm we will discard this

when m = 1

equation 1 becomes

∝ = 4nt/3 =( 4 * 1.33 * 290) /  3 = 1542.8 / 3 = 514.27 ( wavelength )

the color is green

B) the wavelength when the wall thickness is 340 nm

∝ = 4nt / 2m +1

where m = 1

∝ = (4 * 1.33 * 340 ) / 3  = 1808.8 / 3 = 602.93 nm  ( orange color )

the observation is that there is a change of visible color
