To determine

The sensitivity of the diode thermometer that operates at 100 mA for a temperature range between 25°C to 150°C from the following:

  1. (a) +0.2 mV/°C
  2. (b) +2.0 mV/°C
  3. (c) -0.2 mV/°C
  4. (d) -2.0 mV/°C

The sensitivity of a thermocouple is 0.05 mV/K. If the voltage range is from 0-50 mV and the lowest temperature that can be measured is 273 K. What is the upper limit of the temperature range (in K)?
You are an expert witness, having been hired by an attorney who is defending a wire manufacturing company in a lawsuit. The company is being sued by a firm that manufactures electronic measurement devices. The wire company provides copper wires with precision lengths and radii to be used in thermal measurement devices manufactured by the device firm. The device firm lost a major contract due to inaccuracy of their thermal measurement device. This firm is claiming that the precision of the wires provided by the wire company was not sufficient. You have inspected the wires in the laboratory and have found the lengths to be precise and the radii to be uniform, well within the specifications provided by the device firm. You report this information during the trial, and the legal team for the device firm looks frustrated. The lawyer confers with his client, jumps up, and says, "The wire company did not allow for thermal expansion of the wire! Thermal expansion could make a difference of…
A copper-constantan thermocouple generates a voltage of 4.75 x 10-3 volts when the temperature of the hot junction is 110 °C and the reference junction is kept at 0 °C. If the voltage is proportional to the difference in temperature between the junctions, what is the temperature in degrees Celsius of the hot junction when the voltage is 2.08 x 10-3 volts?
