A thermocouple of negligible resistance
produces an e.m.f. of 40 µV/ºC in the linear range
of temperature. A galvanometer of resistance 10
ohm whose sensitivity is 1 µA/division, is
employed with the thermocouple. The smallest
value of temperature difference that can be
detected by the system will be
