  2. 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 ...

  3. Conversion of scales of temperature - Wikipedia

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

    This is a collection of temperature conversion formulas and comparisons among eight different temperature scales, several of which have long been obsolete.. Temperatures on scales that either do not share a numeric zero or are nonlinearly related cannot correctly be mathematically equated (related using the symbol =), and thus temperatures on different scales are more correctly described as ...

    Length (m), Mass (kg), Volume (l) and Temperature (°C): The kilogram is the mass of a litre of cold water. 1 millilitre of water occupies 1 cubic centimetre, weighs 1 gram. Candela (cd) and Watt (W) relationship: Candela is about the luminous intensity of a moderately bright candle, or 1 candle power; a 60 Watt tungsten-filament incandescent ...

  5. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    Most scientists measure temperature using the Celsius scale and thermodynamic temperature using the Kelvin scale, which is the Celsius scale offset so that its null point is 0 K = −273.15 °C, or absolute zero. Many engineering fields in the US, notably high-tech and US federal specifications (civil and military), also use the Kelvin and ...

    Nonetheless, the residual and irreducible instability of a physical IPK undermined the reliability of the entire metric system to precision measurement from small (atomic) to large (astrophysical) scales. [39] By avoiding the use of an artefact to define units, all issues with the loss, damage, and change of the artefact are avoided. [1]: 125

  7. Kelvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin

    (The same increment as the Celsius scale) Thomson's best estimates at the time were that the temperature of freezing water was 273.7 K and the temperature of boiling water was 373.7 K. [33] These two properties would be featured in all future versions of the Kelvin scale, although it was not yet known by that name.

  8. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit

    mass "The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m 2 s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆ν Cs." [1] The mass of one litre of water at the ...

  9. List of metric units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metric_units

    The kilogram (kg) is the unit of mass. The ampere (A) is the unit of electric current. The kelvin (K) is the unit of thermodynamic temperature. The mole (mol) is the unit of amount of substance. The candela (cd) is the unit of luminous intensity. The SI also defines 22 derived units and associated symbols:
