Question

Rank the size of a change in temperature of one degree Fahrenheit, one degree Celsius, and one kelvin. In other words, if a thermometer were to show that the temperature outside increased by these amounts, which change would feel the largest? If any of the options are the same magnitude, stack them above one another. Rank the sizes of one degree in each scale from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

Answer 1

A one-degree change in Fahrenheit is 9/5 times larger than a one-degree change in Celsius or kelvin.

Step-by-step explanation:

When comparing the size of a temperature change of one degree Fahrenheit, one degree Celsius, and one kelvin, we can consider that the Fahrenheit scale is the largest, followed by the Celsius scale and then the Kelvin scale. The magnitude of temperature differences is the same in units of kelvins and degrees Celsius, so they can be considered equivalent. A one-degree change in Fahrenheit is 9/5 times larger than a one-degree change in Celsius or kelvin.

Answer 2

One degree change of Kelvin and one degree change of Celsius is the same. To prove this, you can assume two values in Celsius then find the difference. Then convert the two values in Kelvin and find the difference, you will find they are equal.
One degree C is larger than one degree of F. Each deg. C is 1.8 more than each deg. F.
