Guillaume puts a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.1 K.

Part A:
What is the magnitude of its temperature change (Change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Celsius?
Answer: 15.1 C

Part B:
What is the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit?

Respuesta :

Answer: (a) The magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is [tex]15.1^{o}C[/tex].

(b) The magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is [tex]27.2^{o}F[/tex].

Explanation:

(a)  Expression for change in temperature is as follows.

        [tex]|\Delta T| = |x - y|K[/tex]

                         = 15.1 K

                    = [tex]|(x - 273.15) - (y - 273.15)|^{o}C[/tex]

                    = [tex]|x - y|^{o}C[/tex]

                    = [tex]15.1^{o}C[/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is [tex]15.1^{o}C[/tex].

(b)  Change in temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows.

           F = 1.8C + 32

          C = [tex]\frac{F - 32}{1.8}[/tex]

Since,   K = C + 273

or,    [tex]\Delta K = \Delta C = \frac{\Delta F}{1.8}[/tex]

         [tex]\Delta F = 1.8 \Delta K[/tex]

                      = 1.8 (15.1)

                      = [tex]27.18^{o}F[/tex]

or,                  = [tex]27.2^{o}F[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is [tex]27.2^{o}F[/tex].

Part A: The magnitude of the change in temperature in degrees Celsius is 15.1 °C

Part B: The magnitude of the change in temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.18 °F

From question,

We are to determine the change in temperature in degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit

  • Part A

From the given information,

The change in temperature in kelvin = 15.1 K

Let the initial temperature be x K

∴The final temperature = (x - 15.1)K

From the formula

K = 273 + °C

°C = K - 273

∴ The initial temperature in °C = (x - 273) °C

and

The final temperature in °C = (x - 15.1 - 273) °C

The change in temperature in °C = Initial temperature in °C - Final temperature in °C

∴ The change in temperature in °C = (x - 273) °C - (x - 15.1 - 273) °C

The change in temperature in °C = (x - 273 - x + 15.1 + 273 ) °C

The change in temperature in °C = 15.1 °C

Hence, the magnitude of the change in temperature in degrees Celsius is 15.1 °C

  • Part B

Using the formula

°F = 1.8°C + 32

∴ Initial temperature in °F = 1.8(x - 273) + 32

Initial temperature in °F = 1.8x - 491.4 + 32 °F

and

Final temperature in °F = 1.8(x - 15.1 - 273) + 32

Final temperature in °F= 1.8x -27.18 -491.4 +32 °F

The change in temperature in °F = Initial temperature in °F - Final temperature in °F

The change in temperature in °F = 1.8x - 491.4 + 32 - (1.8x -27.18 -491.4 +32) °F

The change in temperature in °F = 1.8x -491.4 +32 -1.8x +27.18 + 491.4 -32 °F

The change in temperature in °F =  27.18 °F

Hence, the magnitude of the change in temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.18 °F
