The thermoelectric electromotive force $e$ is given by $e = \alpha t - \frac{1}{2}\beta t^2$. If the temperature of the cold junction is $0 \, ^\circ C$,find the temperature of inversion $t_i$. (Given: $\alpha = 500.0 \, \mu V/^\circ C$,$\beta = 5.0 \, \mu V/^\circ C^2$)

  • A
    $100 \, ^\circ C$
  • B
    $200 \, ^\circ C$
  • C
    $300 \, ^\circ C$
  • D
    $400 \, ^\circ C$

Assertion : All electric devices shown in the circuit are ideal. The reading of each of ammeter $(A)$ and voltmeter $(V)$ is zero.
Reason : An ideal voltmeter draws almost no current due to very large resistance, and hence $(V)$ and $(A)$ will read zero.

Antimony and bismuth are usually used in a thermocouple,because

$A$ cell having an emf $\varepsilon$ and internal resistance $r$ is connected across a variable external resistance $R$. As the resistance $R$ is increased,the plot of potential difference $V$ across $R$ is given by:

$A$ battery of $emf$ $E$ and internal resistance $r$ is connected across a resistance $R$. Resistance $R$ can be adjusted to any value greater than or equal to zero. $A$ graph is plotted between the current $(i)$ passing through the resistance and potential difference $(V)$ across it. Select the correct alternative$(s)$.
