Question

The temperature of two bodies falls by 5°C. What is the corresponding fall
on the following:
(i) Fahrenheit scale (ii) Kelvin scale?​

Answer 1

Answer:

By 5° both on Fahrenheit and Kelvin scale

Explanation:

Given,

The temperature of two bodies falls by 5°C.

To solve: What is the corresponding fall on the following:

(i) Fahrenheit scale (ii) Kelvin scale?​

Concept  Involed: The change in temperature on any scale of temperature is equal.

i.e Change in Fahrenheit Scale = Change in Celsius scale = ΔT in Kelvin

i.e ΔT °F = ΔT °C = ΔT K

Therefore, they both will di ffer by 5° whichever may be the scale.

Note: Though change in temp. on  scales is same but temperature on scales is not same.

Answer 2

(5°C × 9/5) + 32 = 41°F

5°C + 273.15 = 278.15K
