Question

6)If a Fahrenheit thermometer reads 1000 when a standard Centigrade thermometer reads 370 , what is the error in the Fahrenheit thermometer?

Answer 1

Answer:

F=°C×9/5 +32

or,F=370×9/5+32=666+32=698

or,F=698

So,reading should come 698 instead of 1000

Error=302F

Answer 2

Answer:

Using Relation F=  5 /9 C+32

Correct value of Celsius =  9 /5  (F−32) = 9 /5 ×81=45  degree Celsius

Error = 45−44= 1  degree celsius

⇒Correction = −Error = −1   degree C...

    Answer: -1 degree celsius...
