Q

how to use thermometers correctly?

A

*thermometer should be held vertically
so bulb of the thermometer is well in contact with substance/liquid of temperature which should be measured.
*when taking readings should be adjusted to eye level

-273.15
27
what is absolute zero in kelvin Scale?
0
28
what is absolute zero means?
minimum value to the temperature that any object can reach
29
when kinetic energy of particles decreases what happen to temperature of the object?
the temperature of the object decreases
30
when kinetic energy of particles are0 what happen to temperature of the object?
the temperature of the object is absolute zero
31
what is the international unit of measuring temperature?
kelvin
32
how many divisions in the kelvin scales are equal to one division in the Celsius scale?
*100 degrees celcius divisions equals to 100 degrees Kelvin divisions *1 degree celcius divisions equals to 10 degree Kelvin divisions
33
what has to be done in order to convert a temperature value given in Celsius into Kelvin?
273 should be added to given Celsius value
34
indicate 50 degree celsius in kelvin
50 +273 equals to 323
35
what has to be done in order to convert a temperature value given in Kelvin to Celsius ?
273 should be substracted to given Celsius value
