1 degree on Celsius scale equals 1 degree on Kelvin scale.
But both scales have different fixed points. Celsius scale zero point is the freezing point of the water. Kelvin scale zero point is absolute zero.
The offset between scales is 273.15 degrees that makes 0 degrees Celsius equal 273.15 Kelvin and 0 Kevin equal -273.15 degrees Celsius
It's actually extremely simple and requires just a little bit of algebra.
One of the formulae we use is
F = 1.8 C + 32 (where 1.8 = 9/5)
Just replace F with C so that we want to calculate the temperature at which
the F temperature equals the C temperature:
C = 1.8 C + 32
Doing the algebra we get
-.8 C = 32
or, finally, C = -40
=======================================
A wonderful exposition, resplendent with erudition, elegance, and savvy.
But it doesn't answer the question.
The question is: The point where the Celsius and Kelvinscales intersect.
Answer:
They don't. Celsius and Kelvin are 273° different at anytemperature.
But there is a temperature where Celsius and Fahrenheitare the same number.
See above.
The temperature at which the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales coincide is -40.
At no temperature. This is because:
T/oC = T/K - 273.15
Therefore, T/oC cannot equal T/K
Add 273 to Celsius to get Kelvin.
Odd phrasing to the question. The Kelvin is the absolute scale of temperature. One Kelvin is the equivalent of one degree centigrade. There are no "degrees Kelvin", though. You just say "Kelvin". Absolute zero - the coldest temperature possible where everything freezes- is 0 Kelvin. This is the equivalent of -273 degrees centigrade. You just add 273 to the temperature in degrees centigrade to get the temperature in Kelvin - just remember not to mention degrees...
yes The Kelvin scale is a way of measuring temperature from absolute zero. The gradient is the same as the Celsius (or Centigrade) scale. Not actually a unit of heat, just a measurement of temperature.
Because Kelvin is a scale reflection of reality, of what heat is; the amount of molecular and atomic movement. At 0 Kelvin, a temperature not yet reached, all movement stops and their is no upper limit to the Kelvin scale either.
Kelvin is an SI unit and not a degree of temperature. Celsius is a degree of Kelvin. Kelvin's scale begins at absolute 0. Celsius is scaled equally to Kelvin (1 degree celsius= 1 Kelvin) but begins at 273 K which is when water freezes (0 degrees Celsius).
This is a very simple conversion, you can use this equation to convert Centigrade to degrees Kelvin: ºC + 273.15 = ºK
96 kelvin = -177.15 degrees Centigrade
Since Kelvin = Centigrade + 273.15, YES - it will always be higher than the equivalent centigrade temperature.
To convert Centigrade (a.k.a. Celsius) to Kelvin, add 273 to the Centigrade temperature.
Kelvin is a temperature scale, like Fahrenheit or Centigrade. It is generally used in scientific contexts. One degree Kelvin is equal to one degree Centigrade. In order to find the temperature in Kelvin, I have provided the following equations. If you have a temperature in Fahrenheit and want to know it in Kelvin, it is easiest to convert to Centigrade first. (Fahrenheit Temperature - 32) X (5/9) = (Centigrade Temperature) If you have a Centigrade temperature and want to know it in Kelvin, you can convert it directly to Kelvin. (Centigrade Temperature + 273) = (Kelvin Temperature) The reason for the 273 is that scientists wanted the Kelvin scale to begin at Absolute Zero. Thus, Absolute Zero is 0 K and -273 degrees Centigrade. Since, as I stated above, one degree Centigrade is equal to one degree Kelvin, this equation works. If you want to convert back from Kelvin, the following equations may be used. (Kelvin Temperature -273) = (Centigrade Temperature) And if you're asked to report the temperature in Fahrenheit, use (Centigrade Temperature X (9/5)) +32 = (Fahrenheit Temperature) It should be noted that you do not include a degree symbol when you report a Kelvin temperature.

Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.
0 kelvin = -273.15 degrees Celsius

Fahrenheit, centigrade, kelvin.

To convert form Centigrade (= Celsius) to Kelvin, add 273.
