________________directly converts temperature into voltage?
Correct answer: A. Thermocouple
- A. Thermocouple
- B. Potentiometer
- C. Gear train
- D. LVDT
- E. None of the above
Explanation
A thermocouple generates a voltage from a temperature difference through the Seebeck effect, directly converting thermal information into an electrical signal. The other devices listed do not perform this temperature-to-voltage conversion.
