Question

The temp. of two bodies differ by 1°C. What is the difference on the Fahrenheit scale of temperature?

Answer 1

The difference in temperature of two bodies in the Celsius scale = 1^oC.
We know C/100 = (F - 32)/180.
C =5/9(F- 32)
9/5C + 32 =F
F = 9/5C + 32.
So, the difference of 1^o in the Celsius scale is equal to the difference of 9/5^o in the Fahrenheit scale.
Thus, the Difference of 1^oC of the temperature of two bodies in the Celsius scale is equal to the difference of 1.8^o in the Fahrenheit scale.
