ºC = (ºF - 32) x 5/9 or ºF = (ºC x 9/5 ) + 32

check:

100ºC = 212ºF (most known water boiling temperature)

0ºC = 32ºF (most known water freezing temperature)

-40ºF = -40ºC (intersection of the 2 scales)

0 C is 32 F

Degrees Celsius times nine divided by five plus thirty two equals degrees Fahrenheit.

°C * 9/5 + 32 = °F

Celsius or Centigrade is based on the properties of water at sea level. Water boils at 100C, and freezes at 0C.

Fahrenheit is an older unit of temperature, which defined the stabilization point of a 1:1:1 mixture of salt, water, and ice at 0F. The freezing and boiling points of pure water are then 180 degrees apart at 32F and 212F respectively, which at this point seems to be chosen kind of randomly.

How Will You Calibrate a thermometer in degree Celsius.. ..?

The thermometer was used by the originators of the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.Anders Celsius, a Swedish Astronomer, devised the Celsius scale, which was described in his publication the origin of the Celsius temperature scale in 1742.Celsius used two fixed points in his scale: the temperature of melting ice and the temperature of boiling water. This wasn't a new idea, sinceIsaac Newton was already working on something similar. The distinction of Celsius was to use the melting temperature and not the freezing temperature. The experiments for reaching a good calibration of his thermometer lasted for 2 winters. By performing the same experiment over and over again, he discovered that ice always melted at the same calibration mark on the thermometer. He found a similar fixed point in the calibration of boiling water vapour (when this is done to high precision, a variation will be seen with atmospheric pressure). At the moment that he removed the thermometer from the vapour, the mercury level climbed slightly. This was related to the rapid cooling (and contraction) of the glass.The air pressure influences the boiling point of water. Celsius claimed that the level of the mercury in boiling water is proportional to the height of the barometer.When Celsius decided to use his own temperature scale, he originally defined his scale "upside-down", i.e. he chose to set the boiling point of pure water at 0 °C (212 °F) and the freezing point at 100 °C (32 °F).[1] One year later Frenchman Jean Pierre Cristin proposed to invert the scale with the freezing point at 0 °C (32 °F) and the boiling point at 100 °C (212 °F). He named it Centigrade.[2]Finally, Celsius proposed a method of calibrating a thermometer:Place the cylinder of the thermometer in melting pure water and mark the point where the fluid in the thermometer stabilises. This point is the freeze/thaw point of water.In the same manner mark the point where the fluid stabilises when the thermometer is placed in boiling water vapour.Divide the length between the two marks into 100 equal pieces.These points are adequate for approximate calibration but both vary with atmospheric pressure. Nowadays, the triple point of water is used instead (the triple point occurs at 273.16 kelvins (K), 0.01 °C).

IF the graph shows the relationship between distance and time for a moving object How many seconds would it take the object to move to the 100.0 meter mark?

-- If the answer comes from the graph, then I have to see the graph in order to figure out the answer. -- If the question comes from Apex, then don't bother. You won't get the answer here if we can help it.


This graph shows the relationship between distance and time for a moving object How many seconds would it take the object to move to the 150.0 meter mark?

To find how many seconds it would take for the object to move to the 150.0 meter mark, you would need to locate the point on the graph where the distance is 150.0 meters. Then, you can determine the corresponding time value on the x-axis to find the time it takes for the object to reach that point.

Conversion chart for electric temperatures to gas temp?

The conversion for electric temperature to gas temperature is as follows. Gas mark 1/4, the coolest, is equivalent to 225 degrees Fahrenheit or 110 degrees Celsius. Gas mark 9, the hottest, is 475 degrees Fahrenheit or 240 degrees Celsius.


If a temperature is 32 degrees Fahrenheit than what is it in Celsius?

To convert degrees Fahrenheit into degrees Celsius, subtract 32, multiply by 5, and divide by 9. In this instance: ((32 - 32) x 5) / 9 = 0 degrees Celsius. The Celsius scale starts at the freezing point of water, 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The 100 mark on Celsius is set at the boiling point of water, 212 degrees. Knowing those two points, you can figure out the formula above.
