A bimetallic strip consists of metals A and B. It is mounted rigidly as shown. The metal A has higher coefficient of expansion compared to that of metal B. When the bimetallic strip is placed in a cold both, it will :

Two identical rectangular strips one of copper and other of steel are riveted together to form a bimetallic strip (αcopper > αsteel). On heating this strip will

When a bimetallic strip is heated , it (a) does not bend at all

The given figure shows the graphs of elongation versus temperature for two different metals. If these metals are employed to form a straight bimetallic strip of thickness 6 cm and heated,
