The resistance of a thermometer is \(100 \Omega\) at the triple point of water \((273 \mathrm{~K})\) ) and is \(300 \Omega\) at the melting point of gold \((-873 \mathrm{~K})\). The temperature at which the resistance of the thermometer is \(200 \Omega\) is

  1. A \(273 \mathrm{~K}\)
  2. B \(373 \mathrm{~K}\)
  3. C \(473 \mathrm{~K}\)
  4. D \(573 \mathrm{~K}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(573 \mathrm{~K}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

At \(273 \mathrm{~K}\) or \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), resistance, \(R_0=100 \Omega\) At \(873 \mathrm{~K}\) or \(600^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), resistance \(R_{600}=300 \Omega\) Now, let at \(\theta\) temperature resistance is given \(R_\theta=200 \Omega\) \[ \theta=\text { ? } \] By…
