Why is the kelvin scale used rather than the celsius scale?
Because the Kelvin scale is an absolute scale. In the context of thermodynamics, 2 K is twice as "hot" as 1 K. And 3 K is three times as "hot". That is not true of the Celsius or Fahrenheit (or other temperature) scales.
What scale is easier for people to use Fahrenheit or celsius?
Either - it all depends what you learnt when growing up, or have adapted to as you've grown older. The Fahrenheit scale is almost twice the size of the Celsius scale (between freezing and boiling on Celsius there are 100 degrees, but on the Fahrenheit there are 180 degrees) meaning that smaller temperature differences show up as a larger difference with the Fahrenheit scale than with the Celsius scale. They are just as easy as each other, though scientists prefer Kelvin which has the same unit differences as Celsius but starting with 0 K = -273.15oC (water freezes at 273.15 K and boils at 373.15 K). The Fahrenheit scale was originally intended to be 0oF = freezing point of brine, nominally 32oF = freezing point of water and 96oF = normal body temperature, but later scientists redefined the scale slightly so that water did freezer at exactly 32o F which made body temperature 98.4oF.
Why do scientists use the Kelvin and Celsius scale rather than the Fahrenheit scale?
Celsius is a very accurate measurement between the freezing and boiling points of water. 0 being freezing, and 100 boiling. Kelvin is the measurement of absolute zero, where particles stop moving altogether. Kelvin has the same conversion rating, only 0 Kelvin is -273 degrees Celsius. The Kelvin scale is an absolute scale. This means that 2 K is twice as hot as 1 K and so on. Neither the Celsius nor the Fahrenheit scales do that. The Centigrade (or Celsius scale are based on the freezing and boiling points of water (at normal pressure), the Fahrenheit scale was not: the 0 was the lowest temperature attained by ice and salt.
How you can solve the program of temperature in Celsius and convert it into farennite?
This has been answered twice recently: F=1.8 C + 32
What might be the disadvantages of the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales?
Neither of them are absolute scales so that 2 degrees is not twice as warm (hot) as 1 degree. 10 degrees is not ten times as hot as 1 deg.
Which temperature has a magnitude in Fahrenheit twice its magnitude in celsius?
The question is the temperature at which F = 2C F = 32 + C x 1.8 Substitute for F = 2C 2C = 32 + 1.8 C 0.2 C = 32 C = 160 F = 32 + 160 x 1.8 = 32 + 288 = 320 Answer is: Celsius = 160 Fahrenheit = 320
When is Celsius twice the Fahrenheit?
milk :)
At what temperature will a Fahrenheit thermometer give a reading that is twice that on the celsius thermometer?
A Fahrenheit thermometer will give a reading that is twice that of a Celsius thermometer at -40 degrees, as this is the point where the two temperature scales intersect.
Which is warmer 100 degrees Celsius or 100 degrees Fahrenheit?
100 degrees Celsius is warmer than 100 degrees Fahrenheit. 100 degrees Celsius is the boiling point of water, while 100 degrees Fahrenheit is below body temperature.
What is 10 degrees Celsius equal to?
Convert the temperature to Kelvin. Kelvin starts from absolute zero; so twice the temperature represents twice the internal energy. After doubling the temperature in Kelvin, you can convert back to Celsius if you like.
How do you use kelvin scale?
To use the Kelvin scale, simply reference the temperature measurement based on Kelvin units instead of Celsius or Fahrenheit. The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero (-273.15°C), where molecular motion ceases. To convert Celsius to Kelvin, add 273.15 to the Celsius value.
If it's 0 degrees Fahrenheit today and twice as cold tomorrow how cold will it be?
-26 degrees? Actually, it's -229.835 degrees Fahrenheit or -136.575 Celsius. Absolute zero is -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit and -273.15 Celsius. Divide either one by 2 to get the twice as cold answer.
What has the highest temperature been in Sweden?
The highest recorded temperature in Swedish history was 38 degrees Celsius or 100. 4 degrees Fahrenheit. It was recorded twice, first in 1933 in town of Ultuna and then again in 1947 in Malilla.
What Temperature is twice as hot as zero degrees F?
Twice as hot as 0 degrees Fahrenheit is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, as there are 32 degrees between 0 and 32 on the Fahrenheit scale.
A liquid at 20ºC is twice as hot as the liquid at 10ºC?
Temperature does not translate directly to how "hot" something feels. Heat is about the total thermal energy of a substance, not just its temperature. So, a liquid at 20ºC and 10ºC would feel different in terms of warmth, with 20ºC feeling warmer due to containing more thermal energy.
Why do you use kelvin temperature scale?
We use the Kelvin temperature scale because it is based on absolute zero, the theoretical lowest possible temperature where particles have minimal motion. This makes Kelvin a more absolute and uniform scale compared to Celsius or Fahrenheit, which are based on arbitrary reference points. Kelvin is commonly used in scientific and engineering applications where precise temperature measurement is crucial.
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
