A gas thermometer is used as a standard thermometer for measurement of temperature. When the gas container of the thermometer is immersed in water at its triple point `273.16K`, the pressure in the gas thermometer reads `3.0xx10^4N//m^2`. When the gas container of the same thermometer is immersed in another system, the gas pressure reads `3.5xx10^4N//m^2`. The temperature of this system is therefore __________`.^@C`.

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between pressure and temperature The gas thermometer operates on the principle that pressure (P) is directly proportional to temperature (T) in Kelvin. This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{P_2}{P_1} = \frac{T_2}{T_1} \] ...
