23: Heat and Temperature
- #2Which of the curves in the figure (23-Q1) represents the relation between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures?
Faigure
Ans : (a)
Celsius and Fahrenheit temperatures are related in the following way:
`` C=\frac{5}{9}F-\frac{160}{9}``
Here, F = temperature in Fahrenheit
C = temperature in Celsius
If this equation is plotted on the graph, then the curve will be represented by curve 'a' lying in the fourth quadrant with slope 5/9.
So, the correct option is
(a).
