    The temperature on a Fahrenheit scale is\[98.6{{\,}^{o}}F\]? What is the corresponding temperature on a kelvin scale?

    A)  310.2 K                

    B)  280.3 K

    C)  420.5 K                

    D)  370.6 K

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    We know that, \[{{t}_{F}}={{32}^{o}}+\frac{9}{5}{{t}_{c}}\]                         [\[{{t}_{f}}={{98.6}^{o}}F\](given)] \[98.6=32=\frac{9}{5}{{t}_{c}}\] \[493=160+9{{t}_{c}}\] \[9{{t}_{c}}=493-160\] \[{{t}_{c}}=\frac{333}{9}\] \[{{t}_{c}}={{37}^{o}}C\] So, the temperature on a Kelvin scale is                 = 37 + 273                 = 310 K or            \[\approx 310.2\,K\]
