What is a bimetallic strip and where can it be used?
A bimetallic strip is a strip with two metals bonded together. It can be found in thermostats
Which two metals are used in bimetallic strip?
A bimetallic strip is made out of copper and steel.
What is the Operating principle of a bimetallic strip?
A bimetallic strip is used to convert a temperature change into mechanical displacement.
Is bimetallic strip used in clocks?
YES!
Which two metals are used in a bimetallic strip?
A bimetallic strip usually consists of steel and copper. In some cases brass is used instead of copper.

Why are bimetallic strips used in thermostats?
The two metals chosen for the bimetallic strip have different modulii of thermal expansion, The bimetallic strip bends as the temperature changes and so the strip can be used to activate relays or other electronic switches and so work as a thermostat.
How could a bimetallic strip be used to help in every day life?
A bimetallic strip can be used as a thermometer or thermostat. The two metals expand at different rates which will make it bend. You can use this to find the temperature of an oven. When the temperature of the oven increases, the strip will curve and break the electrical contact which make the oven cool down. When the oven cools the bimetallic strip will become straight again and the electrical contact will be remade and the oven will begin to reheat again.
What is the element which bends with temperature and is used in thermostatic switches?
Bimetallic strip
Name the gadgets in which bimetallic strip is used?
conversion calculator thermostat
What is the device used in thermostat?
Bimetallic strip
Which two metals are used in bimetallic strip in a tube light starter?
Steel and copper
How can a bimetallic strip be used to regulate temperature?
A bimetallic strip is two different metals glued together. When the temperature changes each metal expands (or contracts) but by different amounts, so the strip as a whole ends up bending. This bending property can be used to turn on (or off) a heater switch.
