A person who has two thermometers measuring temperatures in Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin scales in the northern hemisphere, where the weather is very cold, thinks that one of the thermometers is defective when they read the temperature as -40 from both thermometers. Do you agree with this person? Comment.
A cold wave in the US brings temperature to -53 °C. A cold air mass, known as the polar vortex, passed through the United States in January 2019 and caused the temperature to reach -53 °C. Several states declared an emergency, while Chicago and North Dakota experienced -30"C and -37"C, respectively. It can be said that the lowest temperature recorded, in Kelvin, by the Chicago thermometers was:
