A galvanometer with a sensitivity of 3.0·10-5 A per scale division, with internal resistance fi = 20 ohms, connected to the thermocouple circuit, gave a deviation of 11 scale divisions. Another galvanometer, with a sensitivity of 5.0·10-5 A per scale division, with an internal resistance r2 = 30 ohms, switched on instead of the first, gave a deviation of five scale divisions. Determine the resistance of the thermocouple R and its e. d.s. E.
