Question

The value of absolute zero temperature in Fahrenheit scale is

• A. $-{273}^{\circ }F$
• B. $-{32}^{\circ }F$
• C. $-{460}^{\circ }F$
• D. $-{132}^{\circ }F$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$-{460}^{\circ }F$

Absolute temperature in Celsius is $-273.15{}^{o}C$

$F=\frac{9}{5}C+32$

$F=\frac{9}{5}\times (-273.15)+32=-459.67{}^{o}F$

$F\cong -460{}^{o}F$

Hence, absolute temperature in Fahrenheit
