At what temperature on celsius scale, the Farenheight scale reading is double of celsius scale reading?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
[`160^(@)C`]

Given `T_(F)=2T_(C)`' is the correct temperature on celsius scale, then
`(T_(C)-0)/(100)=("x-lower fixed point")/("upper fixed point - lower fixed point")`
`(T_(C))/(100)=(59-5)/(95-5)=(54)/(90)=(3)/(5)`
`T_(C)=(300)/(5)=60^(@)`
