How do the two thermometers Celsius and Fahrennheit compare?

Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. It freezes at 0 degrees Celsius Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. It boils at 100 degrees Celsius. So, one degree Celsius it roughly two degrees Fahrenheit.


The temperature of the Suns interior is about 107 degrees does it matter whether this is degrees Celsius or Kelvins defend your answer?

Change of 1 degree in Celsius scale equals change of 1 degree in Kelvins scale. The difference between the two scales is that they are slighlty offset to each other: -273.15 degree Celsius is 0 degree Kelvins. That difference is negligible for such high temperatures as in the Sun's core (107 degrees). Also, that temperature is an estimated average and both fluctuations and error margin greatly exceeds the offset between the two scales.


What will the answer be if 15c to -5c?

To find the answer when subtracting 5 degrees Celsius from 15 degrees Celsius, you would subtract the two temperatures to get 10 degrees Celsius.


What are the two fixed points on the Celsius scale?

Zero and one hundred degrees: the freezing and boiling points of water respectively.


What is different about the Kelvin scale compared to the other two temperature scales?

The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale that starts from absolute zero, where particles have minimal motion. This means that negative temperatures cannot exist on the Kelvin scale. In contrast, the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are relative scales based on the freezing and boiling points of water.

What are the two temperature scale?

The two most common temperature scales are the Fahrenheit scale and the Celsius scale. However, the Kelvin scale is also used, primarily in science, to prevent negative temperatures.


Is difference between two temperatures in kelvin is equal to degrees celsius?

Kelvin and Celsius both use the same "size" degree, but they have different zero points; 0 K = -273.15 °C. A change of 10 K is identical to a change of 10 °C; a change of -43 K is identical to a change of -43 °C.

How do you use Celsius in a sentence?

Zero degrees on the Celsius scale equals thirty two degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.


How is Celsius designed?

Celsius is designed with two reference points; The point at which water freezes and the point at which water boils, 0c and 100c respectively. This can be compared to Fahrenheit at 32f and 212f respectively.


What are the names of the two scales to measure temperature?

Kelvin scale Celsius scale Fahrenheit scale

What is 35 degrees Celsius in centigrade?

35 degrees... Celsius and Centigrade are two different names for the same temperature scale.


How would a thermometer has measure temperatures using the kelvin scale differ from one that measure temperatures using the celsius scale?

The degrees are the same size on both thermometers. But when the two thermometers are side by side and at the same temperature, the number of the reading on the Celsius thermometer is 273.15 higher than the number of the reading on the Kelvin thermometer.


What is 325 degrees celsius in kelvin?

The temperature 325 K is equal to about 51.85 °C The starting point (zero) for Kelvin is at -273.15 °C, so any temperature in Kelvin has a value 273.15 less on the Celsius scale. Similarly, Celsius temperatures are increased by that amount when expressed in kelvins. The two scales use the same size for a degree, unlike the Fahrenheit scale.


Which temperature scale measures water boiling at 100 degrees?

Fahrenheit: 212 °F is the boiling point of water.Celsius: 100 °C is the boiling point of water.But, as water (at sea level) begins to boil at the temperatures shown above, the scale used is only relevant to which scale we want to use at the time!When the two scales are shown side by side for comparison, the boiling point is shown at the same level.


Why is centigrade scale a good name for the celsius scale?

The scale is based on the freezing point and the boiling point of water (at some standard pressure); between those two temperatures, the scale is divided into 100 intervals.
