Question

F=(K-273.15)*1.8+32.00 An equation for temperature conversion from  K degrees Kelvin to  F degrees Fahrenheit is given by the equation. What is the significance of 273.15 in the equation? Choose 1 answer: (A) A temperature of 273.15 Kelvin degrees converts to 0 Fahrenheit degrees. (B) A temperature of -273.15 Kelvin degrees converts to 0 Fahrenheit degrees. (C) A temperature of 273.15 Kelvin degrees converts to 32 Fahrenheit degrees. (D) A temperature of -273.15 Kelvin degrees converts to 32 Fahrenheit degrees.

Bytelearn · Accepted Answer

Substitute and Calculate: To understand the significance of 273.15 in the equation, let's substitute K with 273.15 and calculate F. F = (273.15 - 273.15) * 1.8 + 32 F = (0) * 1.8 + 32 F = 0 + 32 F = 32Check Options: Now, let's check the options to see which one matches our calculation. (A) Incorrect, because 273.15 Kelvin does not convert to 0 Fahrenheit. (B) Incorrect, because -273.15 Kelvin is not a valid temperature as Kelvin cannot be negative. (C) Correct, because our calculation shows that 273.15 Kelvin converts to 32 Fahrenheit. (D) Incorrect, because -273.15 Kelvin is not a valid temperature, and our calculation did not result in 32 Fahrenheit for -273.15 Kelvin.
