The temperature on a warm summer day is95°F. What is this temperature:a. in degrees Celsius?b. on the absolute (Kelvin) scale?
A person taking a reading of the temperature in a freezer in Celsius makes two mistakes: first omitting
the negative sign and then thinking the temperature is Fahrenheit. That is, the person reads -x°C as
X°F. Oddly enough, the result is the correct Fahrenheit temperature. What is the original Celsius reading?
Round your answer to three significant figures.

1. Temperatures in Biomedicine.
(a) Normal body temperature. The average normal body temperature measured in the mouth is 310 K. What
would Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers read for this temperature?
(b) Elevated body temperature. During very vigorous exercise, the body's temperature can go as high as 40°C.
What would Kelvin and Fahrenheit thermometers read for this temperature?

(c) Temperature difference in the body. The surface temperature of the body is normally about 7c° lower than
the internal temperature. Express this temperature difference in kelvins and in Fahrenheit degrees.
(d) Blood storage. Blood stored at 4.0°C lasts safely for about 3 weeks, whereas blood stored at -160°C lasts
for 5 years. Express both temperatures on the Fahrenheit and Kelvin scales.
(e) Heat stroke. If the body's temperature is above…
