Question:
A bimetallic strip is made from metals with expansion coefficients α1 and α2 (with α2 > α1). The thickness of each layer is s. At some temperature T0, the bimetallic strip is relaxed and straight.
(a) Show that, at temperature T0 + ΔT, the radius of curvature of the strip is
(b) If the layers are made of iron and brass, with s = 0.1 mm, what is R for ΔT = 20.0°C?
