Heat and Thermodynamics :: Problem 7

Problem 7: The normal body temperature is 98.4oF. What will be this temperature in Celsius scale?

Solution:

Step: 1 Overview

Fahrenheit and Celcius scales are related with each other by the equation given below:
C=(5/9)(F-32)

Step: 2 Calculation

F=98.4oF.
From above equation:
C=(5/9)(F-32)
C=(5/9)(98.4-32)
C=36.88oC (Ans)
