Question

A typical thermistor can easily measure a change in temperature of the order of

• A. ${10}^{-3o}C$
• B. ${10}^{-2o}C$
• C. ${10}^{2o}C$
• D. ${10}^{3o}C$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

${10}^{-3o}C$

Thermistor is a type of resister whose resistance is dependent upon temperature , and is widely used for temperature detector. A thermistor can be used to detect small temperature changes. A typical thermistor can easily measure a change in temperature of ${10}^{-3}{}^{0}C$. Hence the correct option is A.
