Question
The kelvin is a unit of measurement for temperature; 0 K is absolute zero, the temperature
at which all thermal motion ceases. Conversion from Fahrenheit to Kelvin is given by
K=× (F-32)+273. The average daily temperature in Monrovia, Liberia, is 78.35°F with a
standard deviation of 6.3°F. If a scientist converts Monrovia daily temperatures to the Kelvin
scale, what will be the new mean and standard deviation?
(A) Mean, 25.75 K; standard deviation, 3.5 K
(B) Mean, 231.75 K; standard deviation, 3.5 K
(C) Mean, 298.75 K; standard deviation, 3.5 K
(D) Mean, 298.75 K; standard deviation, 258.72 K
(E) Mean, 298.75 K; standard deviation, 276.5 K
