Temperatures are measured on the Fahrenheit scale, invented by Daniel Fahrenheit (1686-1736), who proposed it in 1724. The scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, and divides the temperature range between them into 180 equal degrees (32°F to 212°F).
The name Fahrenheit is German, likely from the German verb "fahren" (to drive, to travel in a vehicle). As "heit" means "safety" a root translation could be "safe travel" (in modern German, driving safety is Fahrsicherheit).
it is a measure of temperature still used in the USA and other parts of the world. The metric measurement is celcius.
0 degress celcius = 32 degrees Fahrenheit
In the modern day Fahrenheit is defined using water. As the freezing and boiling points of water are 32 and 212 degrees F respectively, each degree is the 1/180 of the temperature between the freezing and boiling points of water, as 212-32=180.
Fahrenheit is a measure of temperature. It can be either hot or cold.
Fahrenheit is a scale used to measure temperatures. It can be used to measure any temperature, whether hot or cold.
the value of Fahrenheit is that in places where there is no Celsius you normally use Fahrenheit

Considering that freezing point of water is defined as 32 degrees Fahrenheit and boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit, 150 degrees Fahrenheit is rather hot than cold.
Absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as −273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to −459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.
Absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as -273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to -459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.
100 degrees Celsius.You can convert Fahrenheit to Celsius by subtracting 32 then multiplying the result by 5/9.C=(F-32)*9/5
At -40 they're the same. Neither is colder, they are scales of measurements for temperature. Those are two scales of temperature. Neither can be defined as being colder. One could say that Fahrenheit is the "colder" scale because -1 degree Fahrenheit is colder than -1 degree Celsius. The "coldest" scale I know of is Kelvin, which defines 0 degrees Kelvin as -273.15 degrees Celsius (Absolute Zero).
The Fahrenheit scale is defined by the freezing and boiling points of water, 32 and 212 degrees respectively.
That is how the two temperature scales were defined.
Considering that freezing point of water is defined as 32 degrees Fahrenheit and boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit, 150 degrees Fahrenheit is rather hot than cold.
Fahrenheit (symbol °F) is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by, and named after, the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736). Within this scale, the freezing of water into ice is defined at 32 degrees, while the boiling point of water is defined to be 212 degrees - on Fahrenheit's original scale the freezing point of brine was zero degrees.
Absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as -273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to -459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.
The temperature of the weather is defined using measurements such as Celcius or Fahrenheit.
Fahrenheit is the temperature scale proposed in 1724 by, and named after, the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736). Within this scale, the freezing of water into ice is defined at 32 degrees, while the boiling point of water is defined to be 212 degrees. The Fahrenheit scale was replaced by the Celsius scale in most countries during the mid to late 20th century, though Canada retains it as a supplementary scale that can be used alongside Celsius.
There is no -45 Kelvin; absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as -273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to -459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.
The freezing and boiling points of water: 32 and 212 degrees, respectively.
The freezing and boiling points of water: 32 and 212 degrees, respectively.
The mesosphere is 20-50 miles above the earth's surface with temperatures ranging from 50 degrees Fahrenheit to 130 degrees Fahrenheit. The mesosphere is between the stratosphere and thermosphere.
No, temperature scale was not defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824. Fahrenheit scale is part of "US Customary Units", which is based on the Imperial Units system, but differs in several minor ways.
