What is the two major temperature scales of the boiling point?
There are actually three commonly used temperature scales used in the world today. In the U.S. the Fahrenheit scale is commonly used. In scientific research and throughout most of the western world the Celsius, or centigrade scale is most commonly used. In some special cases a very low register scale, Kelvin is used.
What are different scales of thermometer?
The scale we use for temperature is "degrees" (°). There are three temperature scales that are used today. The Kelvin (K) scale is used by scientists and for astronomical temperatures. The Celsius scale (°C) is used in most of the world to measure air temperatures. In the United States, the Fahrenheit scale(°F) is used to measure temperatures at or near the surface.
What is the temperature range of a laboratory thermometer in Fahrenheit scale?
The temperature range is different for each type of thermometer and use.As an example of possible range: from 15 0F to 220 0F.It is not recommended today to use this obsolete temperature scale.
What instrument would you use to measure the mass of a cricket ball?
The instrument to use to measure the mass of a cricket ball is a scale. The balance scale is still used today with gram weights to increase the weight until the scale arms are balanced.
What is the five note scale that is played on some flutes discovered in China called?
The typical five-note scale that is still until today used in Asian music is called pentatonic (pente = five in greek).
What did Celsius invent?
Anders Celsius invented the Celsius temperature scale. He grew up in Sweden and taught astronomy and built the country's first observatory.
What does the c stand for in temperature scale today?
The "c" in the temperature scale stands for Celsius, which is a commonly used international temperature scale.
Do you still use the richtor scale?
Yes we still use the richtor scale today,, to find the force of the earthquake.
Who invented the mercury thermometer and developed a temperature scale?
The mercury thermometer was invented by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, a physicist from Poland, in the early 18th century. He also developed the Fahrenheit temperature scale, which is still used in the US today.
What is the Richter and is still used today?
The Richter scale is a numerical scale that measures the magnitude of earthquakes. It is still used today, but the more commonly used scale is the moment magnitude scale, which provides a more accurate measurement of earthquake size. The Richter scale is not often used by seismologists but is still familiar to the general public.
Who uses the Rankine temperature scale today?
The Rankine temperature scale is not commonly used today in scientific or everyday applications. It is mostly used in engineering fields, such as thermodynamics, particularly in the United States. It is similar to the Fahrenheit scale but uses absolute zero as its starting point.
What is the kelvin scale measured in?
Every point on the Celsius/Centigrade scale is added to the number 273.15 and this is the reading of the thermometer calibrated for Kelvin. Remember, the Kelvin scale does NOT use the degree title or symbol, so 0 degrees Celsius/Centigrade is equal by definition to 273.15 Kelvin. 0 K is the lowest possible reading & is termed absolute zero. Kelvin is more useful in scientific calculations since it is designed using the standard units of volume, pressure, temperature and so on. It plugs into normal scientific units without having to make conversions.When I say degrees Celsius, this is very similar, but not exactly the same as degrees Centigrade. Celsius was calibrated by a physical phenomenon, the point at which water froze was considered 0 degrees Celsius and when water boils the 100 degree Celsius mark was made to produce the Celsius scale (actually originally the scale was backwards and the two numbers were simply switched, but that can be confusing!) Centigrade, was basically a set of evenly distributed marks to notate each degree (the order was correct at this point and the Celsius scale was flipped also to be the normal scale we know today. Since Centigrade was based off of Celsius, it was prone to the error of measuring a perfect reading too, with the additional error added in that two points had to be divided perfectly into 100 units! The inaccuracies were eventually corrected but with ever so slight deviations from the original scale(s) and forever a relic in our temperature measurement systems.
When was Celsius invented?
Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer, created his temperature scale in 1742.

Does the Parthenon still remain today?
yes. you can only see ruins of it today but there is a full scale replica in Nashville , Tennessee
Who created Fahrenheit?
Fahrenheit (symbol °F) is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736), after whom the scale is named.
Is there still racial profiling going on in this world today?
Yes. It exists on a large and widespread scale globally.
