$A$ bimetallic strip is formed out of two identical strips, one of copper and the other of brass. The coefficients of linear expansion of the two metals are $\alpha_C$ and $\alpha_B$. On heating, the temperature of the strip increases by $\Delta T$ and the strip bends to form an arc of radius $R$. Then $R$ is proportional to
