Answer the following
There were two fixed points in the original celsius scale as mentioned above which were assigned the number `0^@C` and `100^@C` respectively. On the absolute scale, one of the fixed points is the triple point of water which on the kelvin absolute scale is assigned the number 273.16 K. What is the other fixed point on this (kelvin ) scale?
