* Normal human body temperature is 36.8 °C ±0.7 °C, or 98.2 °F ±1.3 °F. The commonly given value 98.6 °F is simply the exact conversion of the nineteenth-century German standard of 37 °C. Since it does not list an acceptable range, it could therefore be said to have excess (invalid) precision.
Values are in kelvin K and degrees Celsius °C, rounded For the equivalent in degrees Fahrenheit °F, see: Boiling points of the elements (data page) Some values are predictions
For example, in a scenario where the actual temperature is 10 degrees but the "feels like" temperature is -5 degrees, what that really means is that the wind chill is making it feel as if the air ...
0,1,2: the heats of air in winter 2,3,4: the heats of air in spring and autumn 4,5,6: the heat of air in summer 6: the heat at midday about the month of July 12: 1: the greatest heat which a thermometer takes up when in contact with the human body 14: 1 + 1 ⁄ 4
A few hours later during the early morning hours of Feb. 4, as the temperature dipped further to 10 degrees below zero, this broke that date's record low of 2 degrees below zero from 1886.
Gas mark 1 is 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius). [citation needed] Oven temperatures increase by 25 °F (14 °C) for each gas mark step. Above Gas Mark 1, the scale markings increase by one for each step. Below Gas Mark 1, the scale markings halve at each step, each representing a decrease of 25 °F (14 °C).
Alaska's interior is well known for brutal cold and 54 years ago today its temperature plunged to America's all-time record low. The temperature hit minus 80 degrees at Prospect Creek Camp, Alaska ...
Joseph-Nicolas Delisle. The Delisle scale is a temperature scale invented in 1732 by the French astronomer Joseph-Nicolas Delisle (1688–1768). [1] The Delisle scale is notable as one of the few temperature scales that are inverted from the amount of thermal energy they measure; unlike most other temperature scales, higher measurements in degrees Delisle are colder, while lower measurements ...
