Answer 1

Answer:

A)3410K

B)5678.6 °F

Explanation:

✓ To convert Celcius to Kelvin expression below can be used

K= °C + 273

We were given T=3137 °C

= 3137 + 273= 3410K

✓To convert Celcius to Fahrenheit, expression below can be used

°F =(°C × 9/5) + 32

We were given T=3137 °C

°F= (3137 × 9/5) + 32

= 5646.6+32

=5678.6 °F
