On a new scale of temperature (which is ...

On a new scale of temperature (which is linear) and called the `W` scale. The freezing and boiling points of water are `39^(@)W` and `239^(@)W` respectively. What will be the temperature on the new scale, corresponding to a temperature of `39^(@)C` on the Celsius scale?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of converting a temperature from the Celsius scale to the new W scale, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Freezing and Boiling Points**: - The freezing point of water on the W scale is \(39^\circ W\). - The boiling point of water on the W scale is \(239^\circ W\). ...
