(a) Normally the human body can endure a temperature of 1050F for only short periods of time without permanent damage to the brain and other vital organs. What is this temperature in degrees Celsius? (b) Ethylene glycol is a liquid organic compound that is used as an antifreeze in car radiators. It freezes at â11.5°C. Calculate its freezing temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. (c) The temperature on the surface of the sun is about 6300°C. What is this temperature in degrees Fahrenheit?

Respuesta :

Answer :

(a) The temperature in degree Celsius is, [tex]40.55^oC[/tex]

(b) The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, [tex]52.7^oF[/tex]

(c) The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, [tex]11372^oF[/tex]

Explanation :

The conversion used for the temperature from degree Celsius to Fahrenheit is:

[tex]^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

(a) The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, [tex]105^oF[/tex]

Now we have to determine the temperature in degree Celsius.

[tex]^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (105-32)[/tex]

[tex]^oC=40.55[/tex]

The temperature in degree Celsius is, [tex]40.55^oC[/tex]

(b) The temperature in degree Celsius is, [tex]11.5^oC[/tex]

Now we have to determine the temperature in degree Fahrenheit.

[tex]^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]11.5=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]^oF=52.7[/tex]

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, [tex]52.7^oF[/tex]

(c) The temperature in degree Celsius is, [tex]6300^oC[/tex]

Now we have to determine the temperature in degree Fahrenheit.

[tex]^oC=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]6300=\frac{5}{9}\times (^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]^oF=11372[/tex]

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is, [tex]11372^oF[/tex]
