If the cold junction is held at $0^{\circ} C$, the thermo emf $V$ of a thermocouple varies as $V = 10 \times 10^{-6} t - \frac{1}{40} \times 10^{-6} t^2$, where $t$ is the temperature of the hot junction in $^{\circ} C$. The neutral temperature and the maximum value of thermo emf are respectively:

  • A
    $200^{\circ} C ; 2 \text{ mV}$
  • B
    $400^{\circ} C ; 2 \text{ mV}$
  • C
    $100^{\circ} C ; 1 \text{ mV}$
  • D
    $200^{\circ} C ; 1 \text{ mV}$
