Question

The distance between the upper and lower fixed points is 80 cm.Find the temperature on Celsius scale if the mercury level rises to a height 10.4 cm above the lower fixed point. What will be this temperature on the Fahrenheit scale?

Answer 11

waait i know this onwee

Answer 12

just wait ill type

Answer 13

i was calculating

Answer 14

okkk.. as your wish

Answer 15

Let us assume that the temperature is meausred betwene an upper point of 100C and a lower point of 0C.
so,
80cm = 100C - 0C
so,
1cm = 1.25C
so, every cm represents 1.25C of temperature.
thus, if the mercury rises to 10.4 cm, the temperature measured will be
10.4cm x 1.25C = 13C
now, in Fahrenheit
(F-32)/9 = C/5
so,
F = 9C/5 + 32
= (9 x13) / 5 + 32
= 23.4 + 32
so,
F = 55.4 F
