Question

Wax melts at 335 k Express this temperature in the Fahrenheit and Celsius

Answer 1

Answer:

335 K = 62°C = 143.6°F

Explanation:

C = K - 277 = 335 - 277 = 62°C

C/5 = F-32 / 9

⇒ 62 / 5 = F - 32 / 9

⇒ 62 × 9 = 5F - 160

⇒ 558 = 5F - 160

⇒ 5F = 558 + 160

⇒ 5F = 718

⇒ F = 718 / 5 = 143.6°F

Answer 2

Given,

Temperature at which Wax Melts is 335

For any temperature scale,

$\boxed{ \dfrac{ x - LFP }{UFP - LFP} = \sf \: constant}$

For Kelvin scale,

$\frac{k - 273}{373 - 273} = \frac{k - 273}{100} = \sf \: constant$

For Celsius scale,

$\frac{c - 0}{100} = \frac{c}{100} = \sf \: constant \:$

For Fahrenheit scale,

$\frac{f - 32}{212 - 32} = \sf \: constant$

Here, k, c, f are temperatures on respective scales.

According to given question,

k =335

Conversion to Celsius scale

$\frac{k - 273}{100} = \frac{c}{100} \\ \\ k - 273 = c \\ \\ 335 - 273 = c \\ \\ c = 62$

Conversion to Fahrenheit scale

$\frac{k - 273}{100} = \frac{f - 32}{180} \\ \\ \frac{k - 273}{5} = \frac{f - 32}{9} \\ \\ \frac{335 - 273}{5} = \frac{f - 32}{9} \\ \\ \frac{62}{5} = \frac{f - 32}{9} \\ \\ f - 32 = \frac{62 \times 9}{5} \\ \\ f - 32 = 111.6 \\ \\ f = 111.6 + 32 \\ \\ f = 143. 6$

Therefore,

Temperature on Kelvin = 335 K

Temperature on Celsius = 62°C

Temperature on Fahrenheit = 143.6°F.
