प्रश्न
Do all thermocouples have a neutral temperature?
उत्तर
The temperature of the hot junction at which the thermo-emf in a thermocouple becomes maximum is called neutral temperature for that thermocouple. For a thermocouple in which the constants a and b have the same sign, the neutral temperature will be less than the temperature of the cold junction of the thermocouple \[\left(\text{as }\theta_n = - \frac{a}{b}\right).\]
There will be no neutral or inversion temperature, as the temperature of the hot junction cannot be less than the temperature of the cold junction.

Distinguish between emf and terminal voltage of a cell.
The storage battery of a car has an emf of 12 V. If the internal resistance of the battery is 0.4 Ω, what is the maximum current that can be drawn from the battery?
The earth’s surface has a negative surface charge density of 10−9 C m−2. The potential difference of 400 kV between the top of the atmosphere and the surface results (due to the low conductivity of the lower atmosphere) in a current of only 1800 A over the entire globe. If there were no mechanism of sustaining atmospheric electric field, how much time (roughly) would be required to neutralise the earth’s surface? (This never happens in practice because there is a mechanism to replenish electric charges, namely the continual thunderstorms and lightning in different parts of the globe). (Radius of earth = 6.37 × 106 m.)
