K.C.S.E Physics Q & A - MODEL 2000PP1QN07

Fig. 4 shows a bimetallic thermometer.

Explain how a rise in temperature causes the pointer to move in the direction shown.

ANSWER

Since the strip is bimetallic when temperature rises the outer metal expands more than the inner metal; causing the strip to try and fold more; this causes the pointer to move as shows
