$A$. Peltier coefficient is numerically equal to the potential difference across the junctions of the thermocouple through which current is flowing.
$B$. According to Thomson, energy is neither absorbed nor evolved at the junction of a thermocouple but is absorbed or evolved only along the lengths of both the conductors.

  • A
    Both $A$ and $B$ are true
  • B
    Both $A$ and $B$ are false
  • C

The thermo emf of a thermocouple is given by $E = aT + bT^2$,where $\frac{a}{b} = -200^{\circ}C$. If the cold junction is kept at $30^{\circ}C$,then the inversion temperature is ($\varepsilon$ in volt,$T$ in centigrade). (in $K$)

The total power dissipated in the circuit shown here is ............. $W$.

Three wires of copper,iron,and nickel are joined to form three junctions as shown in the figure. When the temperature of junction $1$ is kept at $50\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ with the other two junctions at $0\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,the sensitive galvanometer gives a deflection of $14$ divisions. When the temperature of junction $3$ is kept at $50\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,with the other two junctions at $0\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,the galvanometer gives a deflection of $11$ divisions. Then the deflection given by the galvanometer,when the temperature of junction $2$ is kept at $50\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,with the other two junctions at $0\,^{\circ}\text{C}$,will be (in $div$)
