Numa determinada escala X, arbitrária, um termômetro marca 0°X para o ponto de fusão do gelo e 50°X para o ponto de ebulição da água, ao nível do mar. Que temperatura esse termômetro marcaria se fosse mergulhado em um líquido cuja temperatura é de 50°C?

Answer:

the temperature measured by the thermometer is 25 ° X

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the temperature measured by the thermometer is shown below:

Here is the thermometric scale list

(X - 0) ÷ C - 0 = (50 - 0) ÷ (100 - 0)

X ÷ C = 50 ÷100

X = C ÷ 2

Now if there is 50 degrees celcius

So, the x would be

= 50 ÷ 2

= 25 ° X

Hence, the temperature measured by the thermometer is 25 ° X

The same is to be considere d
