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.

<u>Answer:</u>
At time 2t the paint ball is at 8 cm to the right and 16 cm to the bottom
<u>Explanation:</u>
We have equation of motion , 
, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.
Considering the horizontal motion of paint ball
Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm
Initial velocity = u m/s
Acceleration = 0 
So 
Now at time 2t,
So horizontal distance traveled in time 2t = 8 cm to the right
Now considering the vertical motion of paint ball
Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm
Initial velocity = 0 m/s
Acceleration = -g
At time 2t,
So vertical distance traveled in time 2t = 16 cm to the bottom
