Question

The temperature in Paris, France ona summer day is 26.0 degreeC. Meanwhile the temperature in Paris, Tennessee is 89.0 degreeF. What is the temperature in France (T_Fr) in degrees Farenheit? R_Fr = What is the absolute difference between the temperature in the two cities (in Kelvin)? |DeltaT| = Indicate which of the following statements is correct. There are degrees-Celcius, degrees-Farenheit, and degrees-Kelvin. The Kelvin scale is based on the existence of absolute zero. The temperature of an object measures how hot it is. The temperature at which water boils is 373.15 degreeC. If two objects have the same temperature, then they are in thermal equilibrium.

Explanation / Answer

Part A)

F = 1.8 C + 32

C = 26 degree celcius

so F = 1.8 (26) + 32

F = 78.8

Part B)

Tf = Temperature in france = 26 C = 26 + 273.15 = 299.15 K

Tt = Temperature in Tenneesse = 89 F = 31.7 = 273.15 + 31.7 = 304.85 K

difference = 304.85 - 299.15 = 5.7 K

Part C)

the kelvin scale is based on the existence of absolute zero

if two objects have same temperature, then they are in themal equilibrium.
