Using the equation for period length, you get an answer of about 4.1 seconds.
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.
Answer:
300 miles per hour
Explanation:
Speed is distance per unit time, expressed as s=d/t where t is the time taken, d is distance covered and s is the speed.
Convering s to hrs
To convert seconds to hours, we knkw that 1 hour has 60 minutes and each minute has 60 seconds. Therefore, 1 hour has 60*60=3600 seconds
If 3600s=1 h
60 s=?
By cross multiplication 60s*1 h/3600s=1/60 hours
Given distance as 5 miles and time as 1/60 hours then the speed will be 5 divided by 1/60 hrs which is equivalent to 5*60=300 miles per hour
The correct answer is:

Let's see why.
1 amu corresponds to the mass of the proton, which is:

if we convert this into energy, using Einstein equivalence between mass and energy, we find:

Now we can convert it into electronvolts:

So, 1 amu = 934 MeV. Therefore, 3 amu corresponds to 3 times this value:
