Solution

The correct option is A $bends with steel on concave side$

When a bimetallic strip is heated, it bends with metal of lesser $α$ on inner side, i.e concave side.

A brass rod of length 50 cm and diameter 3.0 mm is joined to a steel rod of the same length and diameter. What is the change in length of the combined rod at 250 °C, if the original lengths are at 40.0 °C? Is there a ‘thermal stress’ developed at the junction? The ends of the rod are free to expand (Co-efficient of linear expansion of brass = 2.0 × 10^–5K^–1, steel = 1.2 × 10^–5K^–1).
