a plantainum resistance thermometer record 3.0oheme at 0^oC and 8.0ohms at 100^oC if it record 6.0ohms in a certain environment what is temperature of the medium
First, we need to calculate the resistance change per degree Celsius.
Resistance change per degree Celsius = (8.0 ohms - 3.0 ohms) / (100^oC - 0^oC) = 0.05 ohms/^oC
Next, we need to calculate the temperature change based on the resistance change from 3.0 ohms to 6.0 ohms.
Resistance change = 6.0 ohms - 3.0 ohms = 3.0 ohms
Temperature change = Resistance change / Resistance change per degree Celsius = 3.0 ohms / 0.05 ohms/^oC = 60^oC
Therefore, the temperature of the medium is 60^oC.
