Question
A Centigrade and Fathrenheit thermometers are dipped in boiling water. The temperature is lowered until the Fahrenhit thermometer registers a temperature of 140o.
The fall of the temperature as registered by the centigrade thermometer is :
The fall of the temperature as registered by the centigrade thermometer is :
Options
A.40o
B.80o
C.50o
D.90o
Solution
From the formula,
⇒
So fall of temperature in oC is
100 - 60 = 40 oC
⇒
So fall of temperature in oC is
100 - 60 = 40 oC
