The answer is B for sure !
Answer: <span>D. A bimetallic strip bends so that the steel is on the outside curve

When something has an increased temperature, its volume will expand. Then, if the temperature drops, its volume should be smaller. From there option A and B are out since the liquid in thermometer is expand or move up.
When you put two kinds of different metal with a different coefficient of thermal expansion, the outer curve metal will be the one with lesser coefficient when temperature drop. Since the question about drop in temperature then the metal should be bend
Brass will expand 1.5 times more than the steel so the outer curve would be the steel.
Density is a physical property that describes the relationship between mass and volume. Density is the amount of matter in a given space, or volume.
Answer:
21.85 C
Explanation:
mass of iron = 1.5 kg, initial temperature of iron, T1 = 500 C
mass of water = 20 kg, initial temperature of water, T2 = 18 C
let T be the equilibrium temperature.
Specific heat of iron = 449 J/kg C
specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg C
Use the principle of caloriemetry
heat lost by the hot body = heat gained by the cold body
mass of iron x specific heat of iron x decrease in temperature = mass of water x specific heat of water x increase in temperature
1.5 x 449 x (500 - T) = 20 x 4186 x (T - 18)
336750 - 673.5 T = 83720 T - 1506960
1843710 = 84393.5 T
T = 21.85 C
