The electrical resistance of an element in a platinum resistance thermometer at 100°c, 0°c and room temperature are 75.00Ω, 63.00Ω and 64.992Ω respectively. Use the data to calculate room temperature

16.6 °C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Temperature at upper fixed point (Tᵤ) = 100 °C

Resistance at upper fixed point (Rᵤ) = 75 Ω

Temperature at lower fixed point (Tₗ) = 0 °C

Resistance at lower fixed point (Rₗ) = 63.00Ω

Resistance at room temperature (R) = 64.992 Ω

Room temperature (T) =?

T – Tₗ / Tᵤ – Tₗ = R – Rₗ / Rᵤ – Rₗ

T – 0 / 100 – 0 = 64.992 – 63  / 75 – 63

T / 100 = 1.992 / 12

Cross multiply

T × 12 = 100 × 1.992

T × 12 = 199.2

Divide both side by 12

T = 199.2 / 12

T = 16.6 °C

Thus, the room temperature is 16.6 °C
