To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the thermo emf produced by one thermocouple Given that a single thermocouple produces a thermo emf of \( 40 \, \mu V/^{\circ}C \). ### Step 2: Calculate the total emf produced by 150 thermocouples Since the thermocouples in a thermopile are connected in series, the total emf for 150 thermocouples can be calculated as: \[ ...
