How does bimettalic strip work?

Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]4 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.

A pole AB of length 10.0m and weight 600N has its center of gravity 4.0m from the end A, and lies on horizontal ground .Calculat
postnew [5]

Answer:

The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' is 240 N

Explanation:

The given parameters for the pole AB are;

The length of the pole, l = 10.0 m

The weight of the pole, W = 600 N ↓

The distance of the center of gravity of the pole from the side 'A' = 4.0 m

Let 'F_A' represent the force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A' and let a force applied in the upwards direction be positive

For equilibrium, the sum of moment about the point 'B' = 0, therefore, taking moment about 'B', we have

F_A × 10.0 m - W × 4.0 m = 0

∴ F_A × 10.0 m = W × 4.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m

F_A × 10.0 m = 600 N × 4.0 m

∴  F_A = 600 N × 4.0 m/(10.0 m) = 240 N

The force required to begin to lift the pole from the end 'A', F_A = 240 N.

A ray of light contains two colors: red with wavelength of 660 nm and blue with wavelength 470 nm. The ray passes through two na
densk [106]

Answer:

The distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes  for each wavelength is 3.17 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 660 nm

Wavelength of blue = 470 nm

Separated d= 0.30 mm

Distance between screen and slits D= 5.0 m

We need to calculate the distance for red wavelength

Using formula for distance

y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Where, D = distance between screen and slits

d = separation of slits

Put the value into the formula

y=\dfrac{660\times10^{-9}\times5.0}{0.30\times10^{-3}}

y=11\ mm

For blue wavelength,

Put the value into the formula again

y'=\dfrac{470\times10^{-9}\times5.0}{0.30\times10^{-3}}

y'=7.83\ mm

We need to calculate the distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes for each wavelength

Using formula for distance

\Delta y=y-y'

\Delta y=11-7.83

\Delta y=3.17\ mm

Hence, The distance on the screen between the first-order bright fringes  for each wavelength is 3.17 mm.

If two identical cars are traveling at different velocities, which car has the greatest momentum ​
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The one with highest velocity

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the car

v is the velocity of the car

In this problem, we have two identical cars: identical means they have same mass, so

m_1 = m_2 = m

The momentum of car 1 is

p_1 = mv_1

while the momentum of car 2 is

p_2 = mv_2

By comparing the two expressions, we see that the car with greatest momentum is the one with highest velocity, since the mass is the same.

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s
