A body is heated from `-22^(@)F` to `140^(@)F`. What is the change in temperature on (a) the Celsium scale and (b) the Kelvin scale?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(a) `90^(@)C` (b) 90K
`- 22^(@)F = - 30^()@C, 140^(@)F = 60^(@)C`, Difference `= 60 - ( -30) = 90^(@)C = 90K`
