The thermo EMF of a thermocouple varies with the temperature of the hot junction as in volt where the ratio is . If the cold junction is kept at, then neutral temperature is

Important Questions on Current Electricity
The figure shows graph between potential difference and current of a metallic wire at three different temperature and . Which of them will have the least value of temperature?


and are respectively the current and voltage in a metal wire of resistance The graph for the two different temperatures and are given, then


In an experiment, the resistance of a material is plotted as a function of temperature (in some range). As shown in the figure, it is a straight line.
One may conclude that

The resistance of the platinum wire of a platinum resistance thermometer at the ice point is and at steam point is . When it is inserted in a hot bath, the resistance of the wire is . Calculate the temperature of the bath.







The graph between two temperature scales and is shown in the figure. Between upper fixed point and lower fixed point there are equal divisions of scale and divisions on scale . The relationship for conversion between the two scales is given by :
.
