Statement-II: The coefficient of linear expansion of iron is less than brass.
Statement-II: The coefficient of linear expansion of iron is less than brass.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Statement-I is false and statement-II is true
Statement-I is false and statement-II is true. When a bimetallic strip is heated, it bends towards the metal with the lower coefficient of linear expansion. Brass has a higher coefficient of linear expansion than iron, so it bends towards iron.
