The high expansion metal normally used in the bimetallic thermometer is _______________ temperature measurement?

Correct answer: D. Both A. & B.

  • A. Brass for low
  • B. Nickel alloys for high
  • C. Aluminium for all
  • D. Both A. & B.

Explanation

Bimetallic thermometers use metals with different thermal expansion coefficients: brass-based combinations are used for lower temperatures, while nickel-alloy combinations suit higher temperatures. Thus both listed applications are included.
