Chapter 5, Problem 5.23PAE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

What is the evidence which first realized that absolute scale of temperature is required.

Concept Introduction:

• There are three temperature scales Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. Where the Kelvin scale is known as the absolute scale of temperature.
• The conversion of the temp values among these scales is as follows-

  $\frac{C}{5}=\frac{F-32}{9}$ (Where C is temp in Celsius and F is temp in Fahrenheit)

  $0^{0}C=-273K$ (Where C is temp in Celsius and K is temp in Kelvin)
