`? .^(@)C = (400 K - 273 K) (1.0^(@)C)/(1.0 K) = 127^(@) C`
As a shortcut, we just subtract 273 from 400 but scientifically it is required to follow the concept of units. We as indians just hate to use units as we alaways in a hury !
`? .^(@)F = (127^(@) C xx (1.8^(@) F)/(1.0^(@) C)) + 32^(@) F = 261^(@) F`

The rate of cooling of a substance in moving air is proportional to the difference of temperatures of the substance and the air. A substance cools from 36 degree celsius to 34 degree celsius in 15 minutes. Find when the substance will have the temperature 32 degree celsius , it being known that the constant temperature of air is 30 degree celsius.

A straight cylindrical wire is connected to a battery. The wire is maintained at constant temperature of T_(1) when the room temperature is T_(0)(ltT_(1)) . The wire is disconnected from the battery and half of it is cut-off. The remaining half of the wire is connected to the same battery in the same room. Find the constant temperature (T_(2)) attained by the wire. Assume that wire loses heat to the atmosphere through radiation from curved surface only.

Convert the meltign point f lead (327.5^(@)C) to degress Fabhermit and the boling point of ethmod (172.9^(@) F) to degress Celsius. Strategy: Use Eqs(1.3) or (1.4) to carry out the desired conversion.

Keshav observed that the increase in the temperature of a body is given by T_(1) = 2t^(2) for the first 5 minutes and T_(2) = 3t for the next 5 minutes, where T_(1) , T_(2) and 't' are temperatures in Fahrenheit, Celsius scales and time in minutes, respectively. If the initial temperature of the body is 20^(@)F and the relation between the Celsius and Fahrenheit scale is, then find the temperature of the body after 8 minutes in Celsius scale.
