What was the name of the scientist who invented the Rankine scale?
William John Macquorn Rankine
What is fourth scale for measuring temperature?
the fourth scale for measuring temperature is RANKINE...
In physics, zero on the Kelvin scale is also known by which term?
Rankine
What temperature scale has 0 as the least possible temperature?
Both Kelvin and Rankine are absolute temperature scales (The bottom of the scale is absolute 0 meaning there is no lower temperature). Rankine is used more by engineers and Kelvin by scientists
What is zero degrees in rankine?
The Rankine scale, like the Kelvin scale, establishes a zero point at "absolute zero", the theoretical minimum temperature of any matter. But the Rankine scale uses the same size "degree" as Fahrenheit, making zero degrees R = -459.67 °F. So in the four common scales, 0 R = -459.67 °F = 0 K = -273.15 °C.
What is the formula on how to convert degree Celsius into rankine?
Rankine temp = 1.8(Celsius temp) + 491.67
What was the name of the scientist who invented the Rankine scale?
William John Macquorn Rankine
What is the Fahrenheit scale called?
Rankine
Who uses the Rankine temperature scale today?
A few engineering fields in the U.S. measure thermodynamic temperature using the Rankine scale.
What is the temperature scale begins in letter R?
reaumur scale, rankine scale
The what is used to express absolute temperatures in the English system of measurement?
The scale is called the Rankine scale. It is essentially the Fahrenheit temperature increased by 459.67 degrees. Because it is based on absoute zero, there are no negative temperatures in Rankine.
When do you use the Rankine Scale?
The Rankine scale is one of the temperature scales used when an absolute temperature scale is needed. The Rankine scale is useful in calcluations of oil or gas present in an oil or gas reservoir (one of the factors in the equations is the ratio of standard temperature to formation temperature; generally add 460 to the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to obtain degrees Rankine).
What is fourth scale for measuring temperature?
the fourth scale for measuring temperature is RANKINE...

What is the normal body temperature 37 celsius on Rankine scale?
37 degrees Celsius = 558.27 degrees Rankine.
What is the unit used when measuring temperature?
There are four units for temperature: Celsius, Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Rankine. The Kelvin scale is the same as the Celsius scale, just with the zero point being absolute zero. The Rankine scale is the same thing for the Fahrenheit scale. ■
The Fahrenheit absolute scale is called the scale?
The Fahrenheit scale is not absolute and also is obsolete.The absolute scale is Kelvin.
