How does bimettalic strip work?

Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
6 0
A traditional thermostat has two pieces of different metals bolted together to form what's called a bimetallic strip (or bimetal strip). The strip works as a bridge in an electrical circuit connected to your heating system. ... Eventually, it bends so much that it breaks open the circuit.

The basic unit of electric current is the
xxMikexx [17]

The ampere (A) is a basic SI unit consisting of the amount of electric charge or number of electrons that pass a point in a electrical circuit in one second. The volt (V) is the electrical potential causing electrons to move through a wire. It is a joule of energy per coulomb of charge.

Determine the components of reaction at the fixed support
denis-greek [22]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The components of reaction at the fixed support are  

    A_{(x)}  = 400  \ N ,  A_{(y)}  = -500  \ N ,  A_{(z)}  = 600  \ N ,  M_x  = 1225 \  N\cdot m , M_y  = 750 \  N\cdot m ,  M_z  = 0 \  N\cdot m

Explanation:

Looking at  the diagram uploaded we see that there are two  forces acting along the x-axis on the fixed support    

   These force are  400 N  and  A_{(x)} [ i.e the reactive force of  400 N  ]

Hence the sum of forces along the x axis is mathematically represented as

        A_{(x)}  - 400  = 0

=>     A_{(x)}  = 400  \ N

Looking at  the diagram uploaded we see that there are two  forces acting along the y-axis on the fixed support  

   These force are  500 N  and  A_{(y)} [ i.e the force acting along the same direction with 500 N   ]

Hence the sum of forces along the x axis is mathematically represented as

        A_{(y)}  + 500  = 0

=>     A_{(y)}  = -500  \ N

Looking at  the diagram uploaded we see that there are two  forces acting along the z-axis on the fixed support  

       These force are  600 N  and  A_{(z)} [ i.e the reactive force of  600 N  ]

Hence the sum of forces along the x axis is mathematically represented as

        A_{(z)}  - 600  = 0

=>     A_{(z)}  = 600  \ N

Generally taking moment about A along the x-axis we have that

    \sum M_x  = M_x  - 500 (0.75 + 0.5) + 600 ( 1 ) = 0

=>   M_x  = 1225 \  N\cdot m

Generally taking moment about A along the y-axis we have that

    \sum M_y  = M_y  - 400 (0.75 ) + 600 ( 0.75 ) = 0

=>   M_y  = 750 \  N\cdot m

Generally taking moment about A along the z-axis we have that

    \sum M_z  = M_z = 0

=>   M_z  = 0 \  N\cdot m
