RedRocket1647545505 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 If it's 0*Farenheit out today, and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow; how cold is it going to be? answer = [-229.835*F] Now, tell me how I got that.

Guest Mushijobah Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 0 Fahrenheit actually = 255 Kelvin. Kelvin is the benchmark for all temperature. 0 in F and C are both relative to it. -229.835 F is 255/2 K, twice as cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 you converted from Kelvin to Fahrenheit. -230F is half of absolute zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 From a PM I sent to someone earlier: "Kelvin. You have to convert Farenheit to Kelvin. 0* Kelvin = absolute zero. 0*F = 255.3722222*K 255.3722222 / 2 = 127.68611111*K (twice as cold) 127.68611111*K = -229.835*F OR, if you knew that -459.67*F is also Absolute Zero, you could just divide that by 2 to get the answer as well."
