A digital thermometer employs a thermistor as the temperaturesensing element. A thermistor is a kind of semiconductor and has a large negative temperature coefficient of resistivity . Suppose that 0.060 (C ) 1 for the thermistor in a digital thermometer used to measure the temperature of a patient. The resistance of the thermistor decreases to 85% of its value at the normal body temperature of 37.0 C. What is the patients temperature? Sec
