Q35

The temperature of a place on one sunny day is 113 in Fahrenheit scale. The Kelvin scale reading of this temperature will be

A.
318 K
Answer
B.
45 K
C.
62.8 K
D.
335.8 K

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
Let's break down how to solve this temperature conversion problem!
First, we need to convert Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C).
The formula for that is: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
In this case, °F = 113. So, °C = (113 - 32) × 5/9 = 81 × 5/9 = 45°C
Now, we need to convert Celsius (°C) to Kelvin (K).
The formula for that is: K = °C + 273.15
So, K = 45 + 273.15 = 318.15 K
The closest option to 318.15 K is 318 K.
Therefore, the answer is: Option A: 318 K
