Best Answer

An intersection is where people or things can cross paths and then continue on their same path. Ie a four way intersection. A junction is also a place to cross paths, however, the person or thing must either turn back or negotiate a new direction to continue. Like coming to a tee in the road, you must either turn left, right, or turn back but you can't go forward.

How can thermocouple measure the temperature?

Thermocouples are two junctions of two dissimilar metal conductors. One junction is the sensing junction and the other is the reference junction. The voltage between the two junctions depends on the temperature difference between the junctions (Seebeck effect). The voltage can be measured and the temperature difference determined based on known readings of the voltage produced by the metals. If the temperature of the reference junction is known, then the temperature of the sensing junction can be calculated.
