Jyoti created a temperature scale, in which the reading at room temperature divides the total length of the temperature scale in 2 : 3 ratio from LFP. Then find its value on Jyothi's scale, which is the same as Kelvin scale.

A

40 K

B

313 K

C

200 K

D

73 K

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Jyothi created a temperature scale in which reading at the room temperature is dividing the total length of temperature scale into `2 : 3` ratio. The total length of Jyothi's scale is 2x + 3x = 5x
`(2x)/(5x) = (K - 273)/(100)`
`therefore K = 273 + 40 = 313` K in Jyothi's scale
Hence, the correct option is (b).
