Current Electricity Charging Discharging Of Capacitors Question 122

Question: The temperature of hot junction of a thermo-couple changes from $ 80^{o}C $ to $ 100^{o}C. $ The percentage change in thermoelectric power is

Options:

A) 8%

B) 10%

C) 20%

D) 25%

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Thermoelectric power $ P\propto \theta $

Therefore $ \frac{P _{100}-P _{80}}{P _{80}}\times 100=\frac{100-80}{80}\times 100 $ = 25%
