A thermocouple thermometer is connected to a millivoltmeter which can read up to 10mV. When one junction is in ice at 0°C and the other is steam at 100°C, the millivoltmeter reads 4mV. What is the maximum temperature which this arrangement can measure

A

100\(^o\)C

B

248\(^o\)C

C

250\(^o\)C

D

350\(^o\)C

Ask EduPadi AI for a Detailed Answer
Correct Option: C

t\(_\theta\) - t\(_o\) = 10,
t\(_{100}\) - t\(_o\) = 4

θ =t\(_\theta\) - t\(_o\)
t\(_{100}\) - t\(_o\)
×100

 

10
4
×100=250°C

θ = 250°C
