  2. Conversion of scales of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_scales_of...

    To convert a delta temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, the formula is {ΔT} °F = ⁠ 9 / 5 ⁠ {ΔT} °C. To convert a delta temperature from degrees Celsius to kelvin, it is 1:1 ({Δ T } °C = {Δ T } K ).

  3. Fahrenheit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit

    For an exact conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius, and kelvins of a specific temperature point, the following formulas can be applied. Here, f is the value in degrees Fahrenheit, c the value in degrees Celsius, and k the value in kelvins: f °F to c °C: c = ⁠ f − 32 / 1.8 ⁠ c °C to f °F: f = c × 1.8 + 32

    CelsiusC) Fahrenheit (°F) Rankine (°R or °Ra), which uses the Fahrenheit scale, adjusted so that 0 degrees Rankine is equal to absolute zero. Unlike the degree Fahrenheit and degree Celsius, the kelvin is no longer referred to or written as a degree (but was before 1967 [1] [2] [3]). The kelvin is the primary unit of temperature ...

  5. Temperature - Wikipedia

    The 273.15 K difference between K and °C is rounded to 273 K to avoid false precision in the Celsius value. E The 273.15 K difference between K and °C is within the precision of these values. F For a true black-body (which the plasma was not). The Z machine's dominant emission originated from 40 MK electrons (soft x-ray emissions) within the ...

  6. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_temperature

    This definition also precisely related the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which defines the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature with symbol K. Absolute zero, the lowest temperature possible, is defined as being exactly 0 K and −273.15 °C. Until 19 May 2019, the temperature of the triple point of water was defined as exactly 273.16 ...

  7. Absolute zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero

    The theoretical temperature is determined by extrapolating the ideal gas law; by international agreement, absolute zero is taken as 0 kelvin (International System of Units), which is −273.15 degrees on the Celsius scale, [1] [2] and equals −459.67 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale (United States customary units or imperial units). [3]

  9. Freezing air temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing_air_temperature

    In the southern part of Finland, -15 °C (5 °F) is considered the limit of severe frost. The thermometer in the picture shows -17 °C (1.4 °F). The English word "frost" has 2 base meanings that are related to each other but nevertheless sufficiently different: temperature of air below the freezing point of water (ca 273 K)
