A person's temperature is 40° C. What would it be in Kelvin?
A. 313° C
B. −313 K
C. −313° C
D. 313 K
Answer (2)
We know that 0 K = - 273 deg C , or more accurate: - 273.15 deg C ( an absolute zero ): If we want to transform Celsius degrees to Kelvin, we have just to add 273 to the temperature that we have in degrees Celsius( C + 273 = K ). In this case we know that person`s temperature is 40 degrees C. 40 + 273 = 313 K. Answer: D ) 313 K.
To convert 40° C to Kelvin, you add 273.15, resulting in approximately 313 K. The correct answer is D) 313 K.
