Answer
$\text{E}=\text{a}_{\text{AB}}\theta+\text{b}_{\text{AB}}\theta^2$
$\text{a}_{\text{CuAg}}=\text{a}_{\text{CuPb}}-\text{b}_{\text{AgPb}}$
$=2.76-2.5=0.26\mu\text{v}/^\circ\text{C}$
$\text{b}_{\text{CuAg}}=\text{b}_{\text{CuPb}}-\text{b}_{\text{AgPb}}$
$=0.012-0.012\mu\text{vc}=0$
$\text{E}=\text{a}_{\text{AB}}\theta=(0.26\times40)\mu\text{V}$
$=1.04\times10^{-5}\text{V}$
$\text{a}_{\text{CuAg}}=\text{a}_{\text{CuPb}}-\text{b}_{\text{AgPb}}$
$=2.76-2.5=0.26\mu\text{v}/^\circ\text{C}$
$\text{b}_{\text{CuAg}}=\text{b}_{\text{CuPb}}-\text{b}_{\text{AgPb}}$
$=0.012-0.012\mu\text{vc}=0$
$\text{E}=\text{a}_{\text{AB}}\theta=(0.26\times40)\mu\text{V}$
$=1.04\times10^{-5}\text{V}$
