Which is colder 160degree Fahrenheit or 120degree Celsius?
120 degrees Celsius is colder than 160 degrees Fahrenheit. 120 degrees Celsius is approximately equivalent to 248 degrees Fahrenheit.
Temperature is the measure of what?
The degree Celsius is used to measure temperature. It is named after the Swedish astronomer, Andres Celsius, who devised the Celsius scale in 1742.
Originally called centigrade, two reference temperature are used:
- The freezing point of water (0 degree Celsius); and
- The boiling point of water (100 degree Celsius).
A metric thermometer used to measure temperature is divided in intervals between the freezing and boiling points.
Degree Celsius can be transformed into degree Fahrenheit(named after a German instrument maker, Gabriel Fahrenheit), the English equivalent of Celsius.

What is a Celsius temperature for a hot cup of tea?
It depends: how much do you heat it up? Say you put it in the microwave for 1 minute. It would be steaming hot. However, like pure south indians, if you steam it over the stove, strain the other stuff and serve, it would be just right and taste delicious. Just a tip. On that basis, I'm sure you can figure out how much to heat it up.
60 degrees Fahrenheit = 15.556 degrees Celsius rounded to 3 decimal places
Kelvin Celsius and Fahrenheit are three types of scales.?
Kelvin is an absolute temperature scale where 0K is absolute zero, Celsius is based on the freezing and boiling points of water (0°C and 100°C), and Fahrenheit is commonly used in the United States and based on a scale where water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F.
During which step of the 5 C's should you fill out a 9 line EH Spot Report?
You should fill out a 9 line EH Spot Report during the "Confirm" step of the 5 C's (Clear, Collect, Collate, Comprehend, Confirm). This step involves verifying the accuracy and completeness of the information collected before taking action.
What instrument is used to measure temperature of cup of tea?
A thermometer is typically used to measure the temperature of a cup of tea. These thermometers can be digital or analog, and they provide an accurate reading of the tea's temperature.
Room temperature is usually considered to be 25 degrees Celsius what is that in kelvins?
Kelvin is the SI unit for temperature. Celsius is usually used in metric systems. 0 degree celsius is 273.15 Kelvin. Kelvin increases equally with celsius. So to convert celsius to kelvin, we just add 273.15 to celsius. The answer in Kelvin is 295.15
The weather report inaccurately stated the temperature range as between 40 and 50 degrees instead of the actual 54.4 degrees. This means the weather report incorrectly suggested the temperature was lower than it actually was.
DNA re-associates accurately after being denatured at high temperatures because it has complementary base pairing, meaning adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine. When the DNA is cooled down, the complementary bases rejoin, allowing the DNA strands to reassociate accurately. Additionally, the cooling process allows the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs to reform, stabilizing the double helix structure of DNA.
What statement is true about water at 100 C?
Water at 100°C is at its boiling point under standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm). At this temperature, water transitions from a liquid state to a gaseous state (steam).

Could it be raining when the temperature is 5 degrees Celsius?
Yes, it is possible for it to be raining when the temperature is 5 degrees Celsius. Rain can still occur at colder temperatures if the conditions are right, such as if warmer air is moving in above the colder air at the surface.
What is the boiling point of A and W root beer?
Root beer does not have a standard boiling point as it contains a mixture of ingredients that each have their own boiling points. However, in general, the boiling point of a carbonated beverage like root beer is around 212°F (100°C) once all the water has evaporated.
What two pathogens that are able to multiply at temperature below 5 degrees C?
Listeria monocytogenes and Yersinia enterocolitica are two pathogens that are able to multiply at temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius.
Do we usually measure temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit or Kelvin?
That is a very subjective question. In the US it would be Fahrenheit. In France it would be Celsius. In a thermodynamics lab it would be Kelvin. As a scientist I measure in whichever is most suitable in the particular situation.
A measurement of 21.5 degrees Celsius would be appropriate for this thermometer as it falls within its level of precision to the nearest 0.5 degrees Celsius.
She skipped the conversion ratio of minutes to seconds, which is 60 seconds per 1 minute. To convert 18 hours to seconds, you need to multiply 18 hours by 60 minutes/hour and then by 60 seconds/minute.
How much heat does it take to raise the temperature of 0.10 kg of silver by 25 degrees Celsius?
change in energy=mass times specific heat times change in temperature.
7,350 joules
The melting point for rhyolite?
The melting point of rhyolite can vary depending on its composition and mineral content, but typically ranges from 700 to 900 degrees Celsius. Rhyolite is a silica-rich volcanic rock that usually melts at higher temperatures compared to basalt or andesite.
