Celsius Formula

The Celsius scale, also known as centigrade, is based on the freezing point of water being 0° and the boiling point of water being 100°. Because of the 100-degree difference between the designated points, it is commonly referred to as the centigrade scale. It was invented in 1742 by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius.

Temperature represents the amount or intensity of heat present in a material or object.

Temperature is a measure for expressing a body's heat on a scale of one to ten. Temperature can be measured using a thermometer or sensed by touch. Different scales are used to measure the temperature of an item, including Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.

Boiling Point

The boiling point of a material is the temperature at which it transforms from a liquid to a gas (boils).

Melting Point

Melting point is the temperature at which a material transforms from a solid to a liquid condition. The solid and liquid phases of the material are in balance at the melting point.

Freezing Point

The freezing point of a material is the temperature at which it transitions from a liquid to a solid state. The freezing point of a combination is lower than the melting point of the components.

Celsius Temperature

The Celsius temperature scale is the one that is most commonly used to measure temperature.

Between the freezing and boiling points of water, the Celsius temperature scale is split into 100 equal portions, termed degrees Celsius (°C). Water has a freezing point of 0° C and a boiling temperature of 100° C on the Celsius scale.

Fahrenheit Temperature

The Fahrenheit temperature scale is widely used in the United States (and its related territories) and some Caribbean countries for measuring temperature. Water has a freezing point of 32°F and a boiling point of 212°F at sea level, according to the Fahrenheit temperature scale.

Kelvin Temperature

The Kelvin temperature is used to measure temperature. The basic unit of temperature in the International System of Units is Kelvin, which is equivalent to 11273.16 degrees Celsius. The triple point of water is  11273.16 degrees. At sea level, the freezing point of water is 273.15°K and the boiling point is 373.15°K on the Kelvin temperature scale.

Solved Examples

Ex.1. Convert temperatures 40° Celsius to Fahrenheit.

Solution: 

Given,

Celsius = 40°

By using convert degree celsius into Fahrenheit formula, we get,

F = 95 C + 32

F = 95 40 + 32

 F = 104 F

Ex.2. How to convert C to F where C = 56 degrees.

Solution: 

Celsius = C = 56

By using convert degree celsius into Fahrenheit formula, we get,

F = 95 C + 32

F = 95 56 + 32

F = 132.8 F

Ex.3. Convert temperature 600 Kelvin to Celsius?

Solution:

Given, K= 600 K

By using Kelvin to Celsius Conversion Formula

C = K - 273.15

C = 600 - 273.15

C = 326.85  C

Ex.4.  Convert temperature 82° Fahrenheit to Celsius?

Solution:

Given, 

Fahrenheit = 82°

By using Celsius to Fahrenheit Conversion Formula

C = 59 F - 32

C = 59 82 - 32

C = 45.56 - 32

C = 13.56 C

Ex.5. What is 35 Degrees Celsius Equal to Fahrenheit?

Solution:

Given, 

Celsius = C = 35°

By using the convert deg C to F formula, we get,

F = 95 C + 32

F = 95 35 + 32

 F = 95 F

Ex.6. Convert temperature 85°  Celsius to Kelvin?

Solution:

Given, C =   85°

By using Kelvin to Celsius Conversion Formula

K = C + 273.15

K = 85 + 273.15

K = 358.15  K
