How do work thermister?
A thermistor works by changing its resistance in response to temperature changes. As temperature increases, the resistance of a thermistor decreases, and vice versa. This change in resistance is used to measure temperature in various electronic circuits and devices.
What does a thermister do and how does it function in a circuit?
A thermistor is a type of resistor that changes its resistance with temperature. In a circuit, a thermistor is used to measure temperature by detecting the change in its resistance. When the temperature changes, the resistance of the thermistor changes, which can be measured and used to determine the temperature in the circuit.
What is temperature coefficient for insulator?
"Temperature coefficient" means, how does a certain physical quantity vary, depending on the temperature. In this case, the physical quantity in question is probably the electrical resistance, or the electrical resistivity.
What is the relationship between resistance and temperature in electrical circuits?
In electrical circuits, the resistance of a material typically increases as its temperature rises. This relationship is known as temperature coefficient of resistance.
What is the difference between thermostat and thermister?
Thermostat is a mechanical device that reacts to heat. As heat is applied the thermostat contracts and allows water to flow through the system. A thermistor is a thermal resistance sensor that also reacts to heat. There are two kinds, one is a negative coefficient and is a positive coefficient. As heat increases it changes the resistance value of the thermistor. That resistance value is transmitted to the computer and/or temperature gauge. Through computation the computer can can tell what temperature the engine is at to make decisions on how it should be run.
What is the relationship between resistance and temperature?
• ntc 'negative temperature coefficient': its resistance decreases as the temperature increases• ptc 'positive temperature coefficient': its resistance increases as the temperature increases
What is the difference between positive and negative temperature coefficient of resistance?
Negative temperature coefficient of resistance means that as the temperature of a piece of wire or a strip of semiconducting material increases, the electrical resistance of that material decreases.
Temperature coefficient of resistance?
most metals resistance increases with temperature

What is the temperature coefficient of resistance?
The temperature coefficient of resistance is a number used to predict how the resistance of a material changes with changes in temperature. Typically the units are either resistance per temperature or 1/temperature depending on which equation is used for the calculations. For example, in copper the temperature coefficient of resistance is about 0.0039 per change in degrees Celsius. A positive temperature coefficient of resistance means that the resistance of the material will increase as temperature increases. As per the equation or say unit of resistance temperature coefficient, its definition can be given as below: " Rise in temperature per unit initial resistance, when temperature is raised by one degree Celsius is called the resistance temperature coefficient."

What is the units of temperature coefficient of resistance?
The unit of temperature coefficient of resistance is ohm per ohm per degree Celsius or say resistance per resistance per degree Celsius.
What is the purpose for finding temperature coefficient of resistance?
to investigate change in resistance as temperature is varied
If a carbon resistor increases in temperature its resistance will?
This depends on the type of conductor. If the conductor has a positive coefficient the resistance will increase. If the conductor has a negative temperature coefficient the resistance will decrease.
The lowest temperature coefficient metal is?
The metal with the lowest temperature coefficient is Platinum. Its temperature coefficient of resistance is among the lowest of all metals, making it a preferred choice for applications where stability in resistance over a wide temperature range is required.
How the resistance of conducting material vary with temperature?
Well, there's typically two types of materials-Those with positive temperature coefficient and those with negative temperature coefficient. Positive temperature coefficient are those whose resistance increases as temperature increases. Negative temperature cofficient are those whose resistance decrease when the temperature increase. There are however some alloys such as Manganin& Constantan whose resistance is not affected by temperature
