Normal human body temperature is 98.6°F, convert it into Celsius scale and Kelvin scale.

Question

Normal human body temperature is 98.6°F, convert it into Celsius scale and Kelvin scale. (37°C,310K)

Accepted Answer

Solution:

The temperature on Fahrenheit scale = 98.6°F

The temperature on the Celsius scale =?

The temperature on the Kelvin scale =?

F = 1.8C + 32

1.8C = F – 32

1.8C = 98.6 -32

1.8C = 66.6

C =$\frac{(66.6)}{(1.8)}$ = 37°C

T(K) = C + 273

T(K) = 37 + 273

T(K) = 310K
