Question

How do you convert 62°F to kelvins?

Answer 1

the general relation between X-scale, Y-scale may help

Explanation:

`(X-l_x)/(u_x-l_x)=(Y-l_y)/(u_y-l_y)`
where X = reading in X-scale
Y= reading in y-scale

`u_x` =upper fixed point of X scale
`u_y` =upper fixed point of Y scale
`l_x` =lower fixed point of X scale
`l_y`=lower fixed point of Y scale

In our case
X- scale is Kelvin
So `u_x` =upper fixed point of X scale = 373
`l_x` =lower fixed point of X scale=273

and y- scale is Fareheit
`u_y` =upper fixed point of Y scale=212
`l_y` =lower fixed point of Y scale=32
`(X-273)/(373-273)=(62-32)/(212-32)`
`X=100/6+273`=16.67+273 = 289.67
