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.

Your question was incomplete so here is the complete question and answer.
Q. When exercising in the heat, which of the following hydration strategies is best for temperature regulation during an event (e.g., 10K race)
a) plain water
b) 5-7 percent glucose solution
c) Glucose polymer solution of 6-8 percent
d) There appears to be no difference among these different forms of hydration techniques relative to temperature regulation.
Ans. d) There appears to be no difference among these different forms of hydration techniques relative to temperature regulation.
Explanation:
Temperature Regulation is an important phenomenon for the person exposed to extreme hot conditions or weather. Exercising in hot conditions increase the body temperature. Greater and intense exercise, greater the production of heat. Then the heat dissipation takes place in the form of excessive sweating which results in dehydration. That was just the brief overview of temperature regulation. Above mentioned techniques are equally good hydration techniques so there is no difference at all. You can have a plain water or glucose solutions of above mentioned percentages.
The width of the playroom is 4 m
Answer:
A
Explanation:
the horizontal and vertical force acting on it consist a net force on the inclined direction (30degrees below the horizontal) you can tell by the length of the horizontal component (try to see the 30degree incline as horizontal, because that's the direction of the displacement). net work done on the system results in an increase in energy. i hope this can help :D, i'm also taking the ap physics 1 exam tommorow.
