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.
To convert degrees Celsius to Kelvin, simply add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature value. For example, if you have a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, in Kelvin it would be 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 Kelvin.
Kelvin is used as a unit of temperature measurement in the International System of Units (SI). It is based on the absolute zero point of temperature, which is the theoretical point at which all molecular motion ceases. By using Kelvin, scientists can perform calculations and compare temperatures without the limitations of negative values or varying scales.
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.
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).
Use this equation to convert Kelvin to degrees Celsius/Centigrade: [°C] = [K] - 273.15
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.
500K = 226.85ºC
Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.Zero Kelvin - about -273 Centigrade.
kelvin
Fahrenheit, centigrade, kelvin.
If you have a known value for temperature in degrees Centigrade (Celsius), say for example 20oC then you simply add this to the value 273.15 to obtain a value of the temperature in Kelvin. Hence:- 273.15 + 20 = 293.15K
To convert form Centigrade (= Celsius) to Kelvin, add 273.
50 degrees Celsius is equal to 323.15 Kelvin.
Temperature is measured in Celsius (Centigrade), Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
