Question

Perform the following conversions:

Answer 1

Answer :

The conversion used for the temperature from Fahrenheit to degree Celsius is:

$^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

The conversion used for the temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin is:

$K=^oC+273$

(a) $1.06^oF$

$^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

$^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (1.06^oF-32)$

$^oC=-17.188$

The temperature in degree Celsius is, $-17.188^oC$

$K=^oC+273$

$K=-17.188+273$

$K=255.812$

The temperature in Kelvin is, 255.812 K

(b) $3410^oC$

$^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

$3410^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

$^oF=6106$

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, $6106^oF$

$K=^oC+273$

$K=3410+273$

$K=3683$

The temperature in Kelvin is, 3683 K

(c) $6.1\times 10^3K$

$K=^oC+273$

$6.1\times 10^3K=^oC+273$

$^oC=5827$

The temperature in degree Celsius is, $5827^oC$

$^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

$5827^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)$

$^oF=10456.6$

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, $10456.6^oF$
