The relation between resistance R and temperature T for a thermistor (a device that measures temperature) closely follows R = Ro e[Beta (1/T - 1/To)] where R is the resistance in ohms measured at temperature K, and Beta is a material constant. What are the units of Beta and Ro? Clearly show how you decided on your answer.
