Which of the following sentences are true? a. In resistive thermometer, the change in resistance of material per unit change in temperature should be as small as possible. b. Thermometers are semiconductors which behave as resistors with high positive temperature coefficient. c. Thermometers are composed of metallic oxides. d. Thermometers are used for the measurement of level flow and pressure of fluids. Correct Answer a and c are true

Thermometer:

  • A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient. These are composed of metallic oxides.
  • Resistance thermometer transducers, also known as RTDs (resistance temperature detectors) depend on the change of resistivity of any material when the temperature changes, and this change in the resistivity causes a change of resistance.
  • The change in resistance of material per unit change in temperature should be as small as possible to get high sensitivity.
  • Thermistors are essentially semiconductors that behave as resistors with a high-temperature coefficient of resistance.
  • The electrical resistance varies with the temperature and is usually negative, i.e. decreases with increasing temperature, unlike metals.

Statement 1: For non-Newtonian fluids, another term called apparent viscosity is used as their viscosity changes with the change in the shear rate. Statement 2: For non-Newtonian fluids, between the transition region, the power number for non-Newtonian fluids is slightly higher than that for Newtonian fluids.
In this question, a passage and a statement related to it have been given. Read carefully the verse and review the statement based on it. Delhi, which is one of India's capital an d one of the largest cities in the world, is undergoing severe crisis, due to its high level of urbanization, increasing population and high levels of pollution. Studies have proven that Are the biggest factors of pollution used for industrial and domestic use? And due to their use, people here emit large quantities of nitrogen oxides (NOx), ozone (O3), black carbon (BC) and microorganisms (PM). According to the 2015 Global Burden of Disease report, there were 1.09 million deaths due to PM 2.5 in India. Air pollution was included as one of the 10 biggest threats to health. According to the World Health Organization, 37 cities of India are among 100 worst polluted cities in the world, where PM10 was found to be the highest ever. For the production of ozone, together with sunlight and heat, nitrogen oxides (NOx) and organic compounds (VOCs) are needed simultaneously. Therefore, in the summer months, ozone is produced in large quantities in the cities. Statement: Air pollution is one of the top 10 factors affecting health in India. Select the most suitable from the following options A-statement is absolutely true B-statement is probably true C-statement can not be reviewed D-statement is completely false
