About Fahrenheit Scale

The Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit. It uses the degree Fahrenheit (°F) as the unit.

Step 2: Kelvin Output

About Kelvin Scale

The Kelvin scale is an absolute thermodynamic temperature scale used widely in the physical sciences. It uses the SI unit Kelvin (K). Absolute zero (0 K) is the lowest possible temperature.

Key Temperature Points

Absolute zero (0 K) is the lowest possible temperature where all molecular motion stops. Water freezes at 32°F (0°C, 273.15 K) and boils at 212°F (100°C, 373.15 K) at standard atmospheric pressure.

Fahrenheit to Kelvin Conversion Formula

K = (°F – 32) × 5/9 + 273.15

To convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin: Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature, multiply by 5/9, then add 273.15 to get the temperature in Kelvin.
