In a metal with positive Thomson coefficient, current is passed from the lower temperature to higher temperature side. Then heat will be

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

According to Thomson's effect the potential at a point of lower temperature is lower than at the point at higher temperature which is at higher potential. When current is passed from lower temperature to higher temperature of a metal, work is to be done, hence energy is absorbed.
