A bimetallic strip consists of metals $X$  and $Y.$  It is mounted rigidly at the base as shown in the figure. The metal $X$  has a higher coefficient of expansion as compared to that for metal $Y.$  When the bimetallic strip is placed in a cold bath ?

A rod is fixed between two points at $20\,^oC$ . The coefficient of linear expansion of material of rod is $1.1 \times 10^{-5}/\,^oC$ and Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$. Find the stress developed in the rod if temperature of rod becomes $10\,^oC$

$0^o C$ $1\ gm$ ice is mixed with $100^o C$ vapor then what wiil be the final temperature ($^o C$)? 

A bimetallic strip consists of metals $A$ and $B$ . It is mounted rigidly at the base as shown. The metal $A$ has a higher coefficient of expansion to that for metal $B$ . When bimetallic strip is placed in a cold bath it will
