While in Europe, a tourist hears on the radio that thetemperature that day will reach a high of 18 degrees C. What isthis temperature on the Fahrenheit scale______F Normal room temperature is about 66 F. What is the equivalenttemperature on the Celsius scale_____C Reseachers in the Antarctic measure the temperature to be -53F. What is this temperature on the following scales? a) the Celsius scale______C b)the Kelvin scale_______K While in Europe, a tourist hears on the radio that thetemperature that day will reach a high of 18 degrees C.

What is this temperature on the following scales? a) the Celsius scale______C b)the Kelvin scale_______KExplanation / Answer
1 ) Temperature Tc = 18C TF = 9 /5 ( TC + 32 ) = 9/ 5 ( 18 C + 32 ) =90 F 2 ) TC = 5 /9 (TF - 32 ) = 5 / 9 ( 66 F - 32 ) = 18.8 C a ) TF = - 53 F TC = 5 /9 ( TF - 32 ) = 5 /9 ( -66F - 32 ) = -53.9 C b ) TK =TC + 273.15 = -53.9 C +273 .15 = 219.25 KRelated Questions
