Question
Solev this question it has 4 parts confusing me alot and X=167 and in part c there's a bit tricky with X by providing a condition so please check
a) A platinum resistance temperature detector has a resistance of 150 at 20 °C. Calculate its
resistance at X °C (a2o =0.00392).
b) A copper-constantan thermocouple have c = 3.75 x 10-2 mV/°C and k =4.50x10-5 mV/°C². If T1
=X °C and the cold junction T2 is kept in ice, compute the resultant electromotive force.
c) A standard cell with voltage of 1.0195 V, and a variable resistor R1 are connected with 3 V
battery, a 150 N slide wire having length of 0.1*X for X <10, 0.01*X for X >10 in potentiometer.
Determine slide wire current and value of R1 when potentiometer is calibrated to measure
maximum of 1.5 V.
i.
ii.
Find the slide wire position BC at which the sliding contact should be set for calibration.
iii.
Find Vx when null is obtained at 72.5 cm.
To limit the maximum current to 20 µA, calculate value of R2 connected in series with
standard cell.
iv.
d) A strain gauge has a resistance of X N and gauge factor of 2.1, the strain is 2*10^(-3). Find the
change in resistance.
