If today's maximum temperature was 14 degrees celsius and tomorrow's maximum is expected to be 28 degrees celsius will tomorrow be twice as hot as today?

Zero degrees Celsius (or centigrade) is the same as 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Therefore, if you convert the temperature to Fahrenheit, and we are working on a twice (as cold) minus reduction, then tomorrow could be 16 degrees Fahrenheit?it doesn't ask for Fahrenheit. if it is 0 now and twice as cold tomorrow, 0 x 2 = 0. it will be 0 degrees Celsius.If we use the Kelvin scale 0'C = 273.15'K so twice as cold would be 546.3' K or 273.15' C not a realistic answer for Earthly temperatures.Another Answer"Double the coldness" is meaningless. "Cold" is merely a lack of heat. Temperature is a measure of heat, not cold. Moreover, even if you could measure "coldness", you would have to use some unit of measurement that starts at zero when there is no coldness, and increases as it gets colder (the opposite of temperature). I'm not talking about Kelvin, because the zero on the Kelvin scale is set where there is no heat, not where there is no coldness. Presumably, the point of "zero coldness" would be the point at which the highest possible temperature is obtained, and therefore there is no coldness at all. But theoretically, there is no maximum temperature, and therefore no point of "zero coldness". But, even if you could establish what the maximum possible temperature (and therefore the zero point on your "coldness" scale) was, it would be so high that doubling coldness would result in a temperature of less than absolute zero, which is impossible. For example, even if the maximum possible temperature was as low as 600 degrees F (and we know that the average star burns many, many times hotter than that), 600 degrees F is approximately 316 degrees C, or 589 K. If you set your "zero coldness" at this point, 589 K, and increased your coldness measure by 1 for every 1 degree decrease in K, your coldness measurement would reach 316 at 0 degrees C. If you double this, you have a coldness measurement of 632, which equates to a Kelvin temperature of -43. But negative Kelvin temperatures do not exist. QED - there is no such thing as "twice as cold".


Which is warmer 100 degrees Celsius or 100 degrees Fahrenheit?

100 degrees Celsius is more than twice as warm as 100 degrees Fahrenheit.


Why would a temperature given in degrees Fahrenheit be at the Interval Level of measurement?

Itis because the zero is an arbitrary point. As a result 40 deg F is not twice as hot as 20 deg F.


If concord traveled at twice the speed of sound and could fly to New York in half the time it took a 747 does that mean that a 747 travels at the speed of sound?

No

If it's 0 degrees Fahrenheit today and twice as cold tomorrow how cold will it be?

-26 degrees? Actually, it's -229.835 degrees Fahrenheit or -136.575 Celsius. Absolute zero is -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit and -273.15 Celsius. Divide either one by 2 to get the twice as cold answer.


If it's zero degrees outside today and it's supposed to be twice as cold tomorrow how cold is it going to be?

Well as it is never really 0 degrees the percentage of a degree left will be halved.

If two angles are supplementary angles and one angle is 30 degree less than twice the other find the angles?

The angles could be 105 degrees and 75 degrees because they both add up to 180 degrees


What is the number of degrees in an angle which is 36 degrees more than twice its complement?

72


How much is twice as cold as 0 degrees Fahrenheit?

0 degrees c is 273.5 kelvin so twice as cold is 273.5/2 = 136.75 kelvin to convert to degrees subtract 273.5 136.75-273.5= -136.75 degrees c Dan

Britt says that twice an acute angle is always an obtuse angle Is she right?

No. Because twice an acute angle is 60 degrees and an obtuse angle is 120 degrees. So the answer is no
