a resistance thermometer has resistances of 90ω at ice point and 140ω at steam point what would be the temperature if the resistance is 110ω |
|
Answer» Answer: This looks like a question on thermometers and how to read temperature using various THERMOMETRIC properties. x / [p(x) - p(0)] = 100 / [p(100) - p(0)] x is the temperature you want to calculate. p(x) is the thermometric property at x Kelvin. x / [5.5 - 4] = 100 / [5 - 4] x = 150C Extra: your teacher PROBABLY neglected that the pressure and VOLUME of a gas is zero at absolute zero, zero Kelvin, -273C. According to the question, the gas will reach zero pressure at -400C. Explanation: |
