In the interval between the freezing point of water and 700.0°C, the relationship between the resistance and the Celsius temperature Tc is accurately captured by the formula R = Ro (1 + A Tc + B (Tc)²) where A and B are constants determined by measurements at the ice point of water, the steam point of water, and the melting point of zinc (419.514°C). (a) If R equals 10.000 ohms at the freezing point of water, 13.946 ohms at the boiling point of water, and 24.174 ohms at the melting point of zinc, find RO, A, and B (b) If the resistance is measured to be 17.7 ohms, what is the temperature?
