What resistance value would we expect the thermometer to read at 40 degree Celsius ?
A resistance thermometer is calibrated by measuring the resistance of the thermometer at 0 degree Celsius and then at 100 degree Celsius. At 0 degree Celsius the resistance thermometer reads 10 ohms and at 100 degree Celsius the thermometer reads 160 ohms use this to answer the question show working out
and calculation
The resistance value of a thermometer at a specific temperature can vary depending on the type of thermometer being used. However, for a typical thermistor thermometer, the resistance value at 40 degrees Celsius would be around 10,000 ohms.
