A temperature sensor probe is designed to measure the temperature of a liquid. To avoid altering the liquid's temperature, the probe must absorb the least amount of thermal energy from the liquid.
Which thermal capacity of the probe and which temperature rise of the probe will result in the least thermal energy being absorbed from the liquid?
Large thermal capacity, large temperature rise
Large thermal capacity, small temperature rise
Small thermal capacity, large temperature rise
Small thermal capacity, small temperature rise
