Question

Calculate the temperature on Celcius scale for which karengey scale reads half the value on celcius scale. How to calculate it?

Answer 1

Converting celsius to kelvin scale

Celsius scale+273=temperature in Kelvin scale



Let temperature in celsius be x
Then temperature in Kelvin =x+273

given that

(Temperature in Kelvin)=(Temperature in Celsius)/2

Therefore

X+273=x/2
2(x+273)=x
2x+546=x
X=-546
