scale? pls tell the answer

Explanation:Scales and methords of temperature
1. SCALES AND METHORDS OF TEMPERATURE
2. TEMPERATURE SCALES • There are three temperature scales in use today. • They are as follows: 1. Celsius, 2. Fahrenheit, 3. Kelvin.
3. KELVIN TEMPERATURE SCALE • Kelvin temperature scale is the base unit of thermodynamic temperature measurement in the International System (SI) of measurement. • It is defined as 1/ 273.16 of the triple point (equilibrium among the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases) of pure water. The kelvin (symbol K without the degree sign) is also the fundamental unit of the Kelvin scale, an absolute temperature scale named for the British physicist William Thomson, Baron Kelvin. • Such a scale has as its zero point absolute zero, the theoretical temperature at which the molecules of a substance have the lowest energy. • Many physical laws and formulas can be expressed more simply when an absolute temperature scale is used; accordingly, the Kelvin scale has been adopted as the international standard for scientific temperature measurement.
4. CELSIUS TEMPERATURE SCALE • Celsius temperature scale also called centigrade temperature scale, is the scale based on 0 for the freezing point of water and 100 for the boiling point of water. • Invented in 1742 by the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius, it is sometimes called the centigrade scale because of the 100-degree interval between the defined points. • The Celsius scale is in general use wherever metric units have become accepted, and it is used in scientific work everywhere.
5. FAHRENHEIT TEMPERATURE SCALE • Fahrenheit temperature scale is a scale based on 32 for the freezing point of water and 212 for the boiling point of water, the interval between the two being divided into 180 parts. • The 18th-century German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit originally took as the zero of his scale the temperature of an equal ice-salt mixture and selected the values of 30 and 90 for the freezing point of water and normal body temperature, respectively; these later were revised to 32 and 96, but the final scale required an adjustment to 98.6 for the latter value.
6. • Until the 1970s the Fahrenheit temperature scale was in general common use in English-speaking countries; the Celsius, or centigrade, scale was employed in most other
