a. A physicist defines a new temperature scale that has its zero at room temperature of 70°F and its 10° mark at approximately body temperature, say 98°F. Derive an expression for converting from the Fahrenheit scale to this new scale, and determine the boiling point of pure water at 1 atm in the new scale.
