Question

A welder's electrical arc has a temperature ranging from 500°C to 20 000°C. What is this in degrees Fahrenheit?

Answer 1

Answer:

932°F to 36032°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Celsius and Fahrenheit are both measures of temperature. However, Celsius is a metric measurement, and Fahrenheit is used in the USA primarily.

Conversion Formula

To convert the Celsius measurements to Fahrenheit we can use the formula:

• (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F

So, in this formula, you can plug in whatever Celsius value you have in and solve for Fahrenheit. To convert from F to C you can use the second formula:

• (°F − 32) × 5/9 = °C

Solving for Fahrenheit

Now that we have the formula, we can plug in the 2 Celsius values to find the new range.

First, plug 500°C in

• (500°C × 9/5) +32 = °F

Next, multiply the terms within the parentheses

• (900) + 32 = °F

Finally, add the last terms

• 932 = °F

Then, plug in 20000°C

• (20000°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F

Next, multiply the terms within the parentheses

• (36000) + 32 = °F

Lastly, add the terms together

• 36032 = °F

This means that, in Fahrenheit, the temperature range of the welder's electrical arc is 932°F to 36032°F. This is a total range of 35100°F.
