When a current of $1\, A$ is passed through a conductor whose ends are maintained at a temperature difference of $1\, ^oC$,the amount of heat evolved or absorbed is called:

  • A
    Peltier coefficient
  • B
    Thomson coefficient
  • C
    Thermoelectric power
  • D
    Thermo $e.m.f.$

The Thomson coefficient of a conductor is $10 \mu V/K$. The two ends of the conductor are kept at $50^{\circ} C$ and $60^{\circ} C$, respectively. The amount of heat absorbed by the conductor when a charge of $10 C$ flows through it is:

Temperature of cold junction in a thermocouple is $10^{\circ} C$ and neutral temperature is $270^{\circ} C$, then the temperature of inversion is (in $^{\circ} C$)
