A star like the sun has a surface temperature of about 5800 K to 6000 K. At this temperature, a star emits light in the visible spectrum, appearing white or yellow-white.
A blackbody would radiate mostly at visible wavelengths at around 5800 K, corresponding to the temperature of the Sun's surface.
The opposite of Kelvin temperature would be negative Kelvin temperature, as Kelvin is an absolute temperature scale where 0 Kelvin represents absolute zero. Negative Kelvin temperatures are theoretical and not achievable in practice.
To convert a temperature from Kelvin to Celsius, you simply subtract 273.15 from the Kelvin temperature. For example, if a temperature is 0 Kelvin, the corresponding Celsius temperature would be -273.15 degrees Celsius.
The Kelvin is the SI unit for thermodynamic temperature.
Kelvin is measured in units of temperature, specifically the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature. It is used to measure temperature on the Kelvin scale, where 0 Kelvin represents absolute zero, the theoretical lowest possible temperature where molecular motion ceases.
