MCQ
The upper limit temperature of a super conductor is:
  • A
    115K
  • B
    120K
  • C
    125K
  • D
    130K

Answer

  1. 125K

Explanation:

Superconductors are materials that conduct electricity with no resistance. This means that, unlike the more familiar conductors such as copper or steel, a superconductor can carry a current indefinitely without losing any energy.

The upper limit temperature of a superconductor is 125K
