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

-460 degrees what sacle is Fahrenheit celsiusor kelvin?

The lowest possible temperature on the Celsius scale is -273.15 degrees Celsius. The lowest possible temperature on the Kelvin scale is 0 degrees Kelvin. Therefore the only temperature scale on which -460 degrees is possible is the Fahrenheit scale.


What is the Least count of thermometer scale?

The least count of a thermometer scale is the smallest temperature difference that can be measured by the scale. It is typically based on the precision of the markings on the scale, which can vary depending on the design and calibration of the thermometer.

Can you go below 0 on the kelvin scale?

NO. 0 in Kelvin is THE absolute zero. There is no colder temperature Actually, yes. quantum gas reach temperatures a few billionths of a kelvin below zero.


What temperature scale on which water freezes at 0 degree boils at 100degree?

The Celsius scale.


What is the lowest scale in Celsius?

The lowest possible temperature on the Celsius scale is -273.15 °C. This is the same as 0 K on the Kelvin scale, which is the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature. This temperature is called absolute zero, because it is the point where all molecular motion stops.


A temperature equal to 0 k on the kelvin temperature scale is known as?

A temperature equal to 0 K on the Kelvin temperature scale is known as absolute zero. At this temperature, particles have minimal thermal motion, making it the lowest possible temperature in the universe.


Which temperature scales has no negative temperatures?

The Kelvin scale is the only temperature scale that does not have negative temperatures. It starts at absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature at which particles have minimal energy and motion.


What temperature scale is used in the ideal gas equation?

What extremely cold point is the kelvin scale calibrated?

The Kelvin scale is calibrated at absolute zero, which is the coldest temperature possible where particles stop moving and have zero thermal energy. This temperature is equivalent to -273.15 degrees Celsius.
