Drive the expression for temperature coefficient of resistance?

To derive a value for thermal coefficient of resistance, I find the resistance R1 at one temperature T1, and the resistance R2 at temperature T2.
I can then express this coefficient as (R2 - R1) / [R1 (T2 - T1)] X 100% per degree.
Example: R1 = 50 ohms at T1 = 20 degC
R2 = 20 ohms at T2 = 500 degC
(R2 - R1) / [R1(T2 - T1)] X100% per deg = (20 - 50) / [50 (500 - 20)] X100% per deg
= - 0.125% per degC
But this assumes the change in resistance is linear. In fact, such changes often happen on a curve. To estimate the form of the curve, at least three temperature:resistance data pairs are needed.

Why is it important to monitor a drives temperature?
It is important to monitor a drive's temperature to prevent damage from excessive heat. Heat reduces the overall life of the drive.

Why diode logic gate is not suitable for cascading operation?
the pullup or pull down resistance in the diode logic gate makes it a high output resistance device.If u try to drive another diode logic gate with it the output voltage of the first gate will be affected by the resistance in the second gate.A diode logic gate should always drive a high input resistance input.
Why does air pressure in a cars tire increase after a long drive?
As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature. When you increase the temperature of a gas in a sealed container the pressure goes up.As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature.

How do you defrag a iMac?
I am using Stellar Drive Defrag tool to defrag my Mac. It has many advance features, free version of this tool will show you the status of fragmentated drive. You can either defrag whole Mac or any selected drive, you do not need to worry about increasing temperature of your Mac drive during defrag process. This tool has temperature bar to make you aware of temperature of your Mac drive.
What kind of friction occurs between a car and the wind as you drive?
This kind of friction is referred to as drag, or air resistance.
How much is it to fix a coolant leak and can you still drive your car?
There are innumerable points for the leak, cost for repair will depend on where it is. You can drive the car only if the leak is minor and the temperature gauge shows normal temperature.
At what temperature is it unsafe to drive?
The worst temperature is 28-35 or so. That is the time when you are most likely to encounter water on top of the ice.
