Question
Two resistances equal at 0oC with temperature coefficient of resistance α1 and α2 joined in series temperature coefficient of their single resistance will be:
Options
A.α1 + α2
B.

C.

D.

Solution
R1 = R0 (1 + α1t) + R0(1 + α2t)
= 2R0
= R′0
Comparing with R = R0 (1 + at)
α =
= 2R0

= R′0

Comparing with R = R0 (1 + at)
α =
