Question

The temperature in Paris, France ona summer day is 28.0 degreeC. Meanwhile the temperature in Paris, Tennessee is 87.0 degreeF. What is the temperature in France (R_Fr) in degrees Farenheit? T_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 temperature at which water boils is 373.15 degreeC. If two objects have the same temperature, then they are in thermal equilibrium. The temperature of an object measures how hot it is. The Kelvin scale is based on the existence of absolute zero.

Explanation / Answer

Part A: TFr = 28 oC

TF = 32+(9/5)TC

TFr = 32+(9/5)(28)

TFr = 82.4 oF

Part B:

TP = 87 oF

87 = 32+(9/5)TC

TP = 30.6 oC

temperature difference DT = 30.6 -28 = 2.6 K

Correct options are (3),(5)
