Temperature: Is the Measure Of Average Kinetic Energy of particles In A System

Temperature Is Measured In Three Scales
Do You Know?
SI UNIT OF TEMPERATURE: KELVIN (K)
Centigrade Or Celsius Scale ( By Anders Celsius)
ABSOLUTE ZERO (0 K): –273.15 °C =
459.67 °F

Fahrenheit Scale ( By Daniel Fahrenheit) ABSOLUTE ZERO IS A THEORETICAL
IDEA — IT IS THE POINT
WHERE PARTICLES HAVE MINIMUM
POSSIBLE ENERGY,
Kelvin Scale ( By James Lord Kelvin) BUT IT HAS NEVER BEEN REACHED
EXPERIMENTALLY.
