Question

How do we convert degree farenheit to kelvin and vice- versa?

Answer 1

Answer:

Fahrenheit to Kelvin Method

Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature.  

Multiply this number by 5.  

Divide this number by 9.  

Add 273.15 to this number.

The answer will be the temperature in Kelvin. Note that while Fahrenheit has degrees, Kelvin does not.

Fahrenheit to Kelvin Method

You can use the conversion equation to perform the calculation. This is especially easy if you have a calculator that allows you to enter the whole equation, but it's not difficult to solve by hand.

TK = (TF + 459.67) x 5/9

For example, to convert 60 degrees Fahrenheit to Kelvin:

TK = (60 + 459.67) x 5/9

TK = 288.71 K
