Chapter 1, Problem 24P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Convert the temperature from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius and Kelvin scale.

320° F.

Concept Introduction:

Temperature can be converted from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius scale using the following conversion factor.

0C=59(0F32)

Temperature can be converted from Celsius scale to Kelvin scale using the conversion factor.

K=0C+273.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 24P

The temperature in Kelvin =433 K.

The temperature in Celsius =160° C.

Explanation of Solution

Converting 320° F to Celsius:

0C=59(0F32)

0C=59(320032)=1600C

Converting 1600 C to Kelvin:

K=0C+273

K=1600C+273=433K.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Convert the temperature from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius and Kelvin scale.

212° F.

Concept Introduction:

Temperature can be converted from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius scale using the following conversion factor.

0C=59(0F32)

Temperature can be converted from Celsius scale to Kelvin scale using the conversion factor.

K=0C+273.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 24P

The temperature in Kelvin =373 K.

The temperature in Celsius =100° C.

Explanation of Solution

Converting 2120 F to Celsius:

0C=59(0F32)

0C=59(212032)=1000C

Converting 1000 C to Kelvin:

K=0C+273

K=1000C+273=373 K.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Convert the temperature from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius and Kelvin scale.

0° F.

Concept Introduction:

Temperature can be converted from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius scale using the following conversion factor.

0C=59(0F32)

Temperature can be converted from Celsius scale to Kelvin scale using the conversion factor.

K=0C+273.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 24P

The temperature in Kelvin = 255.22 K.

The temperature in Celsius = -17.78° C.

Explanation of Solution

Converting 00 F to Celsius:

0C=59(0F32)

0C=59(0032)=17.780C

Converting -17.780 C to Kelvin:

K=0C+273

K=17.80C+273=255.22K.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Convert the temperature from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius and Kelvin scale.

-250° F.

Concept Introduction:

Temperature can be converted from Fahrenheit scale to Celsius scale using the following conversion factor.

0C=59(0F32)

Temperature can be converted from Celsius scale to Kelvin scale using the conversion factor.

K=0C+273.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 24P

The temperature in Kelvin =116.33 K.

The temperature in Celsius = -156.67° C.

Explanation of Solution

Converting -2500 F to Celsius:

0C=59(0F32)

0C=59(250032)=156.670C

Converting -156.670 C to Kelvin:

K=0C+273

K=156.670C+273=116.33K.
