A) \[{{16}^{o}}C\]
B) \[{{12}^{o}}C\]
C) \[{{8}^{o}}C\]
D) \[{{20}^{o}}C\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] Thermo-emf of thermocouple\[=25\mu \,V{{/}^{o}}C\]. |
Let \[\theta \]be the smallest temperature difference. |
Therefore, after connecting the thermocouple with the galvanometer, thermo-emf |
\[E=(25\mu V{{/}^{o}}C)\times \theta {{(}^{o}}C)=25\theta \times {{10}^{-6}}V\] |
Potential drop developed across the galvanometer |
\[=iR={{10}^{-5}}\times 40=4\times {{10}^{-4}}V\] |
\[\therefore \] \[4\times {{10}^{-4}}=25\theta \times {{10}^{-6}}\] |
\[\therefore \] \[\theta =\frac{4}{25}\times {{10}^{2}}\] |
\[={{16}^{o}}C\] |
