One junction of a thermocouple is kept at a constant temperature $T_r$ and the other junction is kept at a temperature $T$. If the thermo-emf is given by $E = K(T - T_r) [T_0 - \frac{1}{2}(T + T_r)]$,what is the thermoelectric power at $T = \frac{1}{2}T_0$?

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2} K T_0$
  • B
    $K T_0$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} K T_0^2$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} K (T_0 - T_r)^2$
