this is sorta a trick question because you cant have twice as cold, there is no such thing as cold just absence of heat...think about it so say its 100 deg celsius, can you still say twice as cold as 100 deg? nope

If it's 0 degrees Fahrenheit today and twice as cold tomorrow how cold will it be?

-26 degrees? Actually, it's -229.835 degrees Fahrenheit or -136.575 Celsius. Absolute zero is -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit and -273.15 Celsius. Divide either one by 2 to get the twice as cold answer.


If it was 0 degrees out and the weatherman said it would be twice as cold tomorrow how could would it be?

This would be a trick question, as temperature cannot be "twice as cold." Coldness is a lack of heat, so you would measure the difference in temperature in terms of degrees. If it's 0 degrees today and the weatherman says it will be twice as cold tomorrow, it would also be 0 degrees tomorrow.


If it's zero degrees outside today and it's supposed to be twice as cold tomorrow how cold is it going to be?

Well as it is never really 0 degrees the percentage of a degree left will be halved.


Is 20 c twice as warm as 10 c?

No, 20 degrees Celsius is not twice as warm as 10 degrees Celsius. Temperature is measured on a linear scale, but when considering warmth, it's more appropriate to use an absolute temperature scale like Kelvin. In Kelvin, 10 degrees Celsius is 283.15 K and 20 degrees Celsius is 293.15 K; hence, 20 degrees Celsius is not double the heat energy of 10 degrees Celsius.


Which is warmer 100 degrees Celsius or 100 degrees Fahrenheit?

100 degrees Celsius is more than twice as warm as 100 degrees Fahrenheit.


If today's maximum temperature was 14 degrees celsius and tomorrow's maximum is expected to be 28 degrees celsius will tomorrow be twice as hot as today?

Zero degrees Celsius (or centigrade) is the same as 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Therefore, if you convert the temperature to Fahrenheit, and we are working on a twice (as cold) minus reduction, then tomorrow could be 16 degrees Fahrenheit?it doesn't ask for Fahrenheit. if it is 0 now and twice as cold tomorrow, 0 x 2 = 0. it will be 0 degrees Celsius.If we use the Kelvin scale 0'C = 273.15'K so twice as cold would be 546.3' K or 273.15' C not a realistic answer for Earthly temperatures.Another Answer"Double the coldness" is meaningless. "Cold" is merely a lack of heat. Temperature is a measure of heat, not cold. Moreover, even if you could measure "coldness", you would have to use some unit of measurement that starts at zero when there is no coldness, and increases as it gets colder (the opposite of temperature). I'm not talking about Kelvin, because the zero on the Kelvin scale is set where there is no heat, not where there is no coldness. Presumably, the point of "zero coldness" would be the point at which the highest possible temperature is obtained, and therefore there is no coldness at all. But theoretically, there is no maximum temperature, and therefore no point of "zero coldness". But, even if you could establish what the maximum possible temperature (and therefore the zero point on your "coldness" scale) was, it would be so high that doubling coldness would result in a temperature of less than absolute zero, which is impossible. For example, even if the maximum possible temperature was as low as 600 degrees F (and we know that the average star burns many, many times hotter than that), 600 degrees F is approximately 316 degrees C, or 589 K. If you set your "zero coldness" at this point, 589 K, and increased your coldness measure by 1 for every 1 degree decrease in K, your coldness measurement would reach 316 at 0 degrees C. If you double this, you have a coldness measurement of 632, which equates to a Kelvin temperature of -43. But negative Kelvin temperatures do not exist. QED - there is no such thing as "twice as cold".


What is 10 degrees Celsius equal to?

Convert the temperature to Kelvin. Kelvin starts from absolute zero; so twice the temperature represents twice the internal energy. After doubling the temperature in Kelvin, you can convert back to Celsius if you like.


A quantity of an ideal gas is 0 degrees Celsius Another ideal gas is twice as hot What is the temperature?

Since 0 degrees Celsius equals 273 degrees Kelvin, then air that is twice as hot would be equal to 546 degrees Kelvin, which when converted back to Celsius is equal to 273 degrees Celsius. The natural urge is to double the Celsius temperature, let's say it was 5 degrees Celsius, then you'd probably want to double it to 10 degrees Celsius, however, that isn't correct. True temperature is measured in Kelvins, so you must convert to Kelvin to find out the true temperature conversion. Hope this answers the question.


If it is 0 degrees Celsius one day and it is twice as cold the next day how cold is it the next day?

If it is 0 degrees Celsius one day and it is twice as cold the next day, it would be -4 degrees Celsius the next day. This is because doubling the coldness of 0 degrees Celsius means subtracting 2 times 0 from the original temperature, resulting in -4 degrees Celsius.


Why does kelvin chose to be the unit of the temperature not celsius?

Because Kelvin is an absolute scale while Celsius is not. If you think of heat as a measure of the thermal energy of molecules in a substance then 2K is twice as hot as 1K. 2 degrees Celsius is not twice as hot as 1 degree C.


How hot is 184 degrees Celsius?

It is exactly twice of 184 which is 368 degrees Fahrenheit.


200 degree Celsius is hot as 100 degree Celsius?

No. It is hotter. However, it is not twice as hot since the Celsius scale is not absolute - Kelvin is the absolute scale for temperature.
