The most immediately useful and important nowadays are kelvins, Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Rankine. Many others were proposed and/or used during the 17th through 19th centuries: Amonton, Barnsdorf, Beaumuir, Bergen, Brisson, Crucquins, De Luc, Le Lyon, De la Hire, Delancé, Delisle, Ducrest, Edinburgh, Florentine (at least two of those), Fowler, Hales, Hanow, Kirch, La Court, Lange, Leyden, Ludolf, Miles, Murray, Newton, Paris, Poleni, Réaumur, Rømer, Richter, Royal Society of London, Sagredo, Sulzer, and Wedgwood. As you may suspect, the last one was designed for use in pottery kilns.
All of those are linear scales, but there is at least one that's logarithmic, named after its inventor physicist John Dalton (1766-1844). Here, absolute zero registers -infinity D; freezing (273.15 kelvins), 0 D; boiling (373.15 kelvins), 100 D; the melting point of gold (1337 kelvins), around 500 D; and so forth. This comes in handy when you're plotting vast differences in temperature among star types, for example.

the fourth scale for measuring temperature is RANKINE...
Digital scales
The Kelvin and Celsius scales are both ways of measuring temperature. On the Celsius scale, zero degrees is actually 273.15 degrees Kelvin.
The reading is not accurate if it is not in the liquid that you are measuring. Once you take it out, the temperature will be measuring the air.
They are scales for measuring temperature.
Scales work by measuring things. Thermometer scales work by measuring the temperature of the air and certain liquids for example.

Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin
If you are talking about temperature, the most common are Fahrenheit and Celsius, but there are other scales as well.
The last names of the men who devised the temperature scales.
Celsius and Fahrenheit. (: hope i could helpp(: --caitlyn parsons answered this!--
C for celcius F for fahrenheit K for Kelvin

The thermometer is used to measure temperature whether it air, water, molten steel, anything you can think of. Scales of measuring Temperature are mainly Celsius , Fahrenheit and Kelvin
