What are the three common temperature scales?

Answer 1

1: Celsius; in which water freezes at zero and boils at 100 degrees.

2:Fahrenheit

3:kelvin; which starts at absolute zero (where particles stop moving) and increases from there. water freezes at 273 kelvin

A:The three common temperature scales are Kelvin (K), Fahrenheit (F), and Celsius (C).

Kelvin and Celsius use the same scale per degree. The only functional difference between Kelvin and Celsius is the starting point. 0° Kelvin marks absolute zero (the point at which all molecular vibration ceases) where as 0° Celsius marks the freezing point of water under 1 atmosphere of pressure. There is no similar relationship with the Fahrenheit system as it uses its own unique scale.

Relationship to Absolute Zero

0° K = -457.87° F = -273.15° C

Relationship to the Freezing Point of Water

273.15° K = 32° F = 0° C

Conversion formulas

---------------------------

Kelvin to Fahrenheit

F = ((9/5) x (K - 273.15)) + 32

Fahrenheit to Kelvin

K = ((°F - 32) / (9/5)) + 273.15

Kelvin to Celsius

C = K - 273.15

Celsius to Kelvin

K = C + 273.15

Celsius to Fahrenheit

F = (C x (9/5)) + 32

Fahrenheit to Celsius

C = (F - 32) x (5/9)

Answer 2

Degrees Fahrenheit (oF), Degrees Celsius (oC)/centigrade, and Kelvin (K)
