Question

What are the three different scales used for measuring temperature? What is the relationship between them?

Answer 1

Three different scales are used for measuring temperature which are as follows-

1. Fahrenheit scale
2. Celsius scale
3. Kelvin scale

Relation between Celsius and Fahrenheit scale :

The relation between Celsius and Fahrenheit scale is given by -
$$\begin{gathered} \frac{C}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9} \\ HereC=TemperatureinCelsiusscale \\ F=TemperatureinFahrenheitscale \end{gathered}$$

Relation between Celsius and Kelvin scale :

The relation between Kelvin and Celsius scale is given by-
$$\begin{gathered} K=C+273 \\ HereK=TemperatureinKelvinscale \\ C=TemperatureinCelsiusscale \end{gathered}$$
