23. (i) What is Peltier effect? State one difference between Peltier effect and Seebeck effect,

(ii) Explain the statement: temperature coefficient of resistance of a metal is 4 x 10
-3/ ° C.


(i) Peltier effect: If the junctions of a thermocouple are at the same temperature and a current is passed round the circuit of the thermocouple, heat is produced at one junction and absorbed at the other i.e. one junction is heated and other junction is cooled then this defect is called Peltier effect.

The difference between Peltier effect and Seebeck effect is that they are reverse of one another.

(ii) The statement “Temperature Coefficient of resistance of a metal is 4 x 10-3 / °C means that if 1 °C temperature of metal is increased then the charge in resistance will be 4 x 10-3ohm.

In the circuit shown below, PQ is a uniform metallic wire of length 4 m and resistance 20 Ω. Battery B has an emf of 10V and internal resistance of 1 Ω. J is a jockey or slide contact. Resistance of the ammeter and connecting wires is negligible.
 

(i) When the jockey J does not touch the wire PQ, what is the reading of ammeter A?

(ii) Where should the jockey J be pressed on the wire PQ so that the galvanometer G shows no deflection?
