In Fahrenheit is the sun 10000 degrees?
The Sun's outer layer called the photosphere has a temperature of 6,000 degrees Celsius or 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Deep within the core of the Sun the temperature is 15,000,000 degrees Celsius or 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
What kind of star is Betelgeuse exactly?
The star called Betelgeuse is a red giant. It is about 700 times the size of the sun, and its temperature is lower than that of the sun's, at around 6,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
Is -40 degrees C the temperature at which all motion is at a minimum?
0K -273oC-273 degrees COK
Lightning is 3 times as hot as what?
A meteor is the glowing streak in the sky caused by a rock falling into the atmosphere and burning up. Depending on the speed and size, they can reach several thousand degrees in temperature before they either explode or vaporize or both. If the rock survives the fall, it is called a "meteorite". When it hits the ground, it will be several hundred degrees, but they cool off fairly rapidly. After a couple of hours, they will be at ambient temperature, which is to say, the temperature of the ground around them.
What is the sun atmosphere?
The Sun's atmosphere is called the chromosphere and the corona. The photosphere which is below the chromosphere and is the visible surface of the Sun is usually considered to be part of the atmosphere also.
Why is the word Fahrenheit called fahrenheit?
Fahrenheit (symbol °F) is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736), after whom the scale is named.
What does a Fahrenheit thermometer measure?
It measures the temperature of the surrounding environment in units called Fahrenheit.
Two temperature scales are called Fahrenheit and?
Celsius
What is a 240° called?
Temperature, Fahrenheit, Celcius, 250 degrees, and 121.111 Celcius.
In Fahrenheit is the sun 10000 degrees?
The Sun's outer layer called the photosphere has a temperature of 6,000 degrees Celsius or 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Deep within the core of the Sun the temperature is 15,000,000 degrees Celsius or 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
What has a temperature of -4000 Fahrenheit?
Nothing is that cold. There is a limit of coldness, which is called Absolute Zero. Anything that is colder than that, isn't matter anymore. The coldest temperature is −459.67 Fahrenheit (−273.15 Celsius)
What is the lowest possible temperature?
The lowest possible temperature is 0 kelvin = -273.15 Celsius = -459.67 Fahrenheit This temperature is called "absolute zero." Never happened, theoretically, it is when there is no vibration in atoms. The coldest temperature ever to happen on earth was negative 129 Fahrenheit in Antarctica.
What is the difference between Celsius and Centigrade?
What is the differences of Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometer? Don's say centigrade, say degrees Celsius. Look for the differences yourself. Here is a nice temperature converter. Scroll down to related links and look at "Conversion of temperatures and formulas".
Why was the Celsius scale called the centigrade scale?
Temperature is not called Fahrenheit or Celsius; temperature is measured in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius.The names Fahrenheit and Celsius are derived from the creators of the temperature scales: Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit and Anders Celsius.
Who discovered water boils at 212 degrees?
No-one did! A guy called Daniel Fahrenheit proposed a temperature scale where one of the reference points was the temperature of the boiling point of water which he arbitrarilly set at 212 degrees or more precisly 2120F This scale is now only used in the US the rest of us have switched to Celsius (often called centigrade) where the boiling point of water is 1000C
Name three units that are used to measure temperature?
Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Centigrade (Also called Celsius).
What is the average vibration of molecules in an object is measured by?
The measure of the vibration of molecules is called temperature and can be measured using Kelvin, Celsius, or Fahrenheit temperature scales.
