Twice as hot as 0 degrees Fahrenheit is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, as there are 32 degrees between 0 and 32 on the Fahrenheit scale.

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".


Why would a temperature given in degrees Fahrenheit be at the Interval Level of measurement?

A temperature given in degrees Fahrenheit is at the interval level of measurement because there is a meaningful zero point (absolute zero), and the intervals between values are consistent and measurable. However, the ratio of two temperatures (such as 80°F compared to 40°F) does not have a meaningful interpretation due to the arbitrary nature of the Fahrenheit scale.

Why Does it make sense to say that one body is twice as hot as another?

It makes sense to say that one body is twice as hot as another because temperature is a measurable quantity that follows a linear scale. Doubling the temperature of a body means that it has twice the amount of thermal energy as the other body, making it appear twice as hot.


Is 460 degrees hot or cold?

460 degrees typically refers to a high temperature, so it would be considered hot.

A piece of iron has a temperature of 18 degrees celsius A second identical piece of iron is twice as hot What is the temperature of the second piece of iron explain please?

The absense of heat is zero on the Kelvin scale, which is −273.15 degrees Celsius. So 0 C is 273.15 K, and 18 C is 291.15 K. Twice that is 582.3 K, or 309.15 C.

What was the temperature at ground zero in hiroshima?

The temperature at ground zero in Hiroshima at the moment of the atomic bomb explosion in 1945 reached several million degrees Celsius, instantly vaporizing everything in the immediate vicinity.


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 the temp today is 0 degrees celsius today temp tomorrow is twice as cold what will the temp be?

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

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.

Is kelvin more or less than Celsius?

One degree in the Kelvin scale is equal to one degree in the Celsius scale. They do however have different 'starting' points. Celsius starts (zero degrees 00 C) at the freezing temperature of water. Kelvin starts (zero degrees 00 K) is at absolute zero. Which is the coldest temperature obtainable. This temperature is equal to -273.150 C


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.
