It can be used with any temperature. However the Kelvin scale (centigrade based on absolute zero) is often used for very cold temperatures, or for very hot temperatures, where it is practically the same as Celsius.
The Celsius scale is also known as the Centigrade scale.
When you are in the US or its territories.
The Celsius scale, of course. Though it is also known as the centigrade scale.
Units are the same. Temperatures in kelvin are 273 more than celsius temperatures.
For temperatures, zero is an arbitrary reference point, depending on which scale is used. For Celsius, zero is assigned the the temperature at which water freezes. So temperatures which are colder than this temperature will be negative values, and temperatures warmer will be positive values. Fahrenheit uses a different reference point for zero, but similar principles apply.
It is a sensible scale for recording temperatures.
The scale we use for temperature is "degrees" (°). There are three temperature scales that are used today. The Kelvin (K) scale is used by scientists and for astronomical temperatures. The Celsius scale (°C) is used in most of the world to measure air temperatures. In the United States, the Fahrenheit scale(°F) is used to measure temperatures at or near the surface.
Yes. Beginning in 1970, Australia adopted the use of the Celsius (centigrade) scale for temperatures.
Celsius and Kelvin scale are also valid and useful. Celsius scale is a conventional scale based on the freezing and boiling point of water. Kelvin scale is an absolute, scientific, based on thermodynamics scale.
Not necessarily. Celsius is a temperature scale and can describe a large range of temperatures.
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.
Both and neither. Celsius is a temperature scale and as such, covers a wide range of temperatures.
Temperatures in that range are associated with stellar fusion, and are usually expressed in Kelvin, which is practically the same as Celsius for those high temperatures. However, 15 million °C would equal 27 million °F. Fahrenheit is almost never used for such high temperatures. Celsius and Kelvin are normally used. But 15 million degrees on the Celsius scale would be approximately 27 million degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.
The Fahrenheit scale was traditionally used in the English system of measurement until largely supplanted by the Celsius scale. Measurements in the Fahrenheit scale are generally used only in the US, almost exclusively for air temperatures, body temperatures, and oven temperatures.Another scale that uses English degree units is the Rankine scale, which is based on absolute zero.
That's wrong. That's not how you convert temperatures between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
The scale used is usually Celsius or Kelvin.AnswerThe SI unit of temperature is the kelvin (K). Celsius is a metric unit, but not an SI unit, although it may be 'used alongside' the SI system.
The temperature scale commonly used in science is the Celsius or centigrade scale. The Kelvin scale is most often used in the thermodynamic and astronomical fields (and especially when dealing with temperatures close to absolute zero).There are two temperature scales used by scientists. The first scale, Kelvin, is the SI (Standard Unit) or official unit used in certain cases. Informally, and more commonly is the Celsius scale.The older Fahrenheit scale (and its absolute version, the Rankine) are still used in the US and some other countries, but not generally for scientific purposes to avoid misunderstandings in data comparison.
