What scale is the same as the celsius scale?

Kelvin. Both Celsius and Kelvin are measurements of temperature in the metric system, and both have the same size of degree. The only difference between them is that Kelvin has been shifted down the scale so that 0 degrees Kelvin is absolute zero, the coldest possible temperature.


The non-SI scale for temperature?

The SI scale for temperature is Kelvin, which you can get by subtracting 273,15 from the Celsius scale.


Who where Kelvin and Celsius temperature scales are named after?

The Kelvin temperature scale is named after the Belfast-born physicist William Thomson,1st Boron Kelvin. The Celsius scale of temperature is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. He had developed a similar temperature scale though not the same one.


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. ■


Is kelvin a unit of temperature?

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.

What is the kelvin scale based on?

The Kelvin scale is based on temperature. To add to the above, the Kelvin scale is based on the Celsius scale in that the measurment unit is the same. The difference is the starting point where 0 Kelvin is set at absolute zero, or -273.15ºC.
