Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The higher temperature is ${\text{-10}}^{\text{o}}\text{C}\text{or}{\text{10}}^{\text{o}}\text{F}$, has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

The tendency of the heat energy to get transferred from one object to another object.is indicated by temperature.  This is measured by a device called “thermometer”.  Celsius kelvin and Fahrenheit are some commonly used scales in thermometer.  For example the conversion of one state of substance to other state can be measured by this thermometer.  The relationship between the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales can also be stated in an equation format.

  ${}^{\text{o}}\text{F}\text{=}\frac{\text{9}}{\text{5}}\left({}^{\text{o}}\text{C}\right)\text{+}\text{32}$
