How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system

tatiyna

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.

A closed system consisting of 2 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pVn = c

vazorg [7]

Answer:

V1=2.5ft3

V2=1ft3

n=1.51

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=2lb*1.25ft3/lb=2.5ft3

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=2lb*0.5ft3/lb= 1ft3

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/60)/ ln (1/2.5)

n=1.51

Using a scale of 1 cm to represent 10 N, find the size and direction of the resultant of forces of 50 N

marta [7]

Answer:

$74.31\ \text{N}$

$16.59^{\circ}$

Explanation:

P = 50 N

Q = 30 N

$\theta$ = Angle between the vectors = $45^{\circ}$

Resultant is given by

$R=\sqrt{P^2+Q^2+2PQ\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{50^2+30^2+2\times 50\times 30\times \cos45^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow R=74.31\ \text{N}$

Angle of resultant

$\phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{Q\sin\theta}{P+Q\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{30\times \sin45^{\circ}}{50+30\cos45^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \phi=16.59^{\circ}$
