Is -4 degrees bigger then -2 degrees?
Temperature is said to be hot or cold, not large or small. So, -4 degrees is colder than -2 degrees.
How much is -40F in degrees celsius?
Was that on purpose? Because it just so happens that -40 is where the two meet! -40 degrees Celsius = -40 degrees Fahrenheit. Was that on purpose? Because it just so happens that -40 is where the two meet! -40 degrees Celsius = -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
What effect does the temperature of water have on the upthrust of the water on a ship?
The temperature of water does not directly impact the upthrust of water on a ship. Upthrust, also known as buoyant force, is primarily influenced by the density of water displaced by the ship, which remains relatively constant with temperature changes. However, temperature can affect the density of the ship itself or the air inside it, indirectly influencing upthrust.
What do you wear in 24 degree weather?
BUNDLE UP! Girls) Wear a sweater/sweatshirt with a north face fleece on top with jeans and ugg boots.
Boys) Under armour shirt with jeans/sweatpants with sneakers with high socks. ( boots if that is your style too)
41 degrees Fahrenheit is approximately 5 degrees Celsius. You can convert Fahrenheit to Celsius by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and then multiplying the result by 5/9.
Spring is typically a season of transition, where temperatures gradually warm up after the cold of winter. While it can still be cool in some regions during the early part of spring, temperatures generally become milder as the season progresses.
What is 31.6 Celsius to Fahrenheit?
31.6 degrees Celsius is equal to 88.88 degrees Fahrenheit when converted using the formula (Celsius x 9/5) + 32.
Can you survive at 60 degrees below zero?
Not for long in normal winter clothes. Even breathing at that temperture can damage your lungs. When my father was in college in upstate NY, the temperature went down below -50F below zero & everybody was told to try to hold your breath & don't stay outside any longer than 30 seconds at a time when going to your next class. He had gel in his hair & he heard it start cracking & freezing within two seconds of being outside.
Why are materials such as wood and fur and feathers and even snow good insulators?
Feathers grow with a hollow central shaft. From the shaft, interlocking barbs grow. These interlocking barbs trap air and therefore provide insulation from the cold, help to block the sun's UV rays, and repel water.
16 kelvin is 0 degrees, 312 degrees is 100degrees so 1000000 kelvin is VERY hot
How cold is 22 degrees Celsius changed to Fahrenheit?
22 degrees Celsius is equal to 71.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
Is Fahrenheit always capitalized?
Yes, Fahrenheit is always capitalized because it is named after the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit.
Lattes are typically served hot. They consist of espresso mixed with steamed milk and usually do not include ice.
What is the boiling point and melting point of octane?
That depends on what kind of octane you are referring to. n-octane has much different melting and boiling points than iso-octane. Octane has 18 structural isomers. Assuming the person asking the question is interested in either n-octane or iso-octane:
n-octane
melting point: −57 °C, 216 K, -71 °F
boiling point: 125.52 °C, 399 K, 258 °F
iso-octane (also known as 2,2,4-Trimethylpentaneor isooctane)
melting point: -107.38 °C, 166 K, -161 °F
boiling point: 99.3 °C, 372 K, 211 °F
When proteins are heated above 40 degrees Celsius, they can denature, meaning their structure changes and they can lose their function. This is dangerous because many proteins in our body have specific structures that are critical for their roles in processes such as metabolism, immune response, and muscle function. Denaturing these proteins can lead to their dysfunction and potentially disrupt normal bodily functions.
C=40deg.-32deg. C=8deg. divided by 1.8 C=4.4 or 4deg.celcius
Which structures help maintain your body temperature?
Structures such as sweat glands, blood vessels, and the hypothalamus in the brain help regulate body temperature. Sweat glands release sweat to cool the body through evaporation, blood vessels dilate to release heat, and the hypothalamus controls these processes to maintain a stable body temperature.
37 degrees isn't anything until it is part of a scale.
cold, only a few degrees above freezing (Fahrenheit)
in Celsius this would be hot, 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why fast rate of heating gives higher melting and boiling point than the true one?
A fast rate of heating can cause the temperature to rise quickly, potentially exceeding the actual melting or boiling point of the substance before it has had time to equilibrate throughout. This can make it seem like the substance has a higher melting or boiling point than it actually does, as it has not fully transitioned to the liquid or gaseous state due to the rapid temperature increase.
What are alternatives to thermometers?
There are no convenient alternatives to using a thermometer to measure body temperature.
Which is colder 20 celsius or 303 kelvin?
20 celsius is colder. It is equivalent to (20+276) Kelvin ie. 296 Kelvin.
For information, 0 celcius equals 276 Kelvin. One degree difference in each metric is same.
What are lead points for intussusception?
These lead points include cystic fibrosis; recent upper respiratory or gastrointestinal illness; congenital abnormalities of the digestive tract; benign or malignant tumors; chemotherapy; or the presence of foreign bodies
What is 46 degree Fahrenheit into Celsius?
46 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to 7.78 degrees Celsius. The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is (Fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9. Applying this formula, we find that 46°F is equivalent to 7.78°C.
