Question

What is normal body temperature in kelvins? Express your answer in kelvins using four significant figures.

Answer 1

Answer : The normal body temperature in kelvins is, 310.2 K

Explanation :

The normal body temperature for human in degree Celsius is, $37^oC$

Now we have to convert it into kelvin.

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

$K=273.15+^oC$

where,

$K$ = temperature in Kelvin

$^oC$ = temperature in centigrade

As we are given the temperature,  $37^oC$

So,

$K=273.15+^oC$

$K=273.15+(37^oC)$

$K=310.15\approx 310.2$

Thus, the normal body temperature in kelvins is, 310.2 K
