2.12 An iron-constantan thermocouple is to be used to measure temperatures between 0 and 400°C. What will be the non-linearity error as a percentage of the full-scale reading at 100°C if a linear relationship is assumed between e.m.f. and temperature? e.m.f. at 100°C = 5.268 mV; e.m.f. at 400°C=21.846 mV

2.12 An iron-constantan thermocouple is to be used to measure temperatures
between 0 and 400°C. What will be the non-linearity error as a percentage of the
full-scale reading at 100°C if a linear relationship is assumed between e.m.f. and
temperature?
e.m.f. at 100°C = 5.268 mV;
e.m.f. at 400°C=21.846 mV
