The Fahrenheit scale () is a temperature scale based on i proposed in 1724 by the physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736).[1] It uses the degree Fahrenheit (symbol: °F) as the unit. Several accounts of how he originally defined his scale exist, but the original newspaper suggests the lower defining point, 0 °F, was established every bit the freezing temperature of a solution of brine made from a mixture of water, ice, and ammonium chloride (a salt).[2] [3] The other limit established was his best estimate of the average human being body temperature, originally set at 90 °F, and so 96 °F (nigh 2.half-dozen °F less than the modern value due to a later redefinition of the scale).[2] However, he noted a centre point of 32 °F, to be set up to the temperature of ice water.

For much of the 20th century, the Fahrenheit calibration was defined by two fixed points with a 180 °F separation: the temperature at which pure water freezes was defined as 32 °F and the boiling betoken of h2o was defined to be 212 °F, both at sea level and under standard atmospheric force per unit area. It is now formally defined using the Kelvin scale[iv] [5] and hence ultimately past the Boltzmann constant, the Planck constant, and the unperturbed footing-state hyperfine transition frequency of the caesium-133 atom.[6]

Information technology is officially used in the United States (including its unincorporated territories), its freely associated states in the Western Pacific (Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia and the Marshall Islands), the Cayman Islands, and the former American colony of Liberia. Fahrenheit is used alongside the Celsius scale in Antigua and Barbuda and other countries which use the same meteorological service, such as Saint Kitts and Nevis, the Bahamas, and Belize. A handful of British Overseas Territories still employ both scales, including the British Virgin Islands, Montserrat, Anguilla, and Bermuda.[7] In the United Kingdom, degrees Fahrenheit figures are sometimes used in newspaper headlines to sensationalize heatwaves.[8] All other countries now use Celsius (formerly known as centigrade), a scale formalized about 20 years subsequently the Fahrenheit scale. However, the name Celsius was given to the centigrade scale much later, in 1948, in honor of the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius.

Definition and conversion [edit]

Fahrenheit temperature conversion formulae
from Fahrenheit to Fahrenheit
Celsius [°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5ix [°F] = [°C] × ninefive  + 32
Kelvin [Grand] = ([°F] + 459.67) × v9 [°F] = [M] × ninev  − 459.67
Rankine [°R] = [°F] + 459.67 [°F] = [°R] − 459.67
For temperature intervals rather than specific temperatures,
1 °F = one °R = 59  °C = vix  K
Comparisons among diverse temperature scales

Historically, on the Fahrenheit calibration the melting point of water was 32 °F, and the boiling bespeak was 212 °F (at standard atmospheric pressure). This put the humid and freezing points of water 180 degrees apart.[9] Therefore, a caste on the Fahrenheit scale was i180 of the interval betwixt the freezing point and the boiling betoken. On the Celsius calibration, the freezing and boiling points of water were originally divers to be 100 degrees apart. A temperature interval of 1 °F was equal to an interval of fiveix  degrees Celsius. With the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales now both defined by the kelvin, this human relationship was preserved, a temperature interval of i °F beingness equal to an interval of 59  K and of 59  °C. The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales intersect numerically at −40 in the corresponding unit (i.e. −40 °F ≘ −forty °C).

Absolute zero is 0 K, −273.xv °C, or −459.67 °F. The Rankine temperature calibration uses degree intervals of the aforementioned size equally those of the Fahrenheit calibration, except that absolute zippo is 0 °R – the same mode that the Kelvin temperature scale matches the Celsius scale, except that absolute zero is 0 K.[ix]

The combination of degree symbol (°) followed by an upper-case letter letter F is the conventional symbol for the Fahrenheit temperature scale. A number followed past this symbol (and separated from it with a infinite) denotes a specific temperature point (e.yard. "Gallium melts at 85.5763 °F"). A deviation between temperatures or an uncertainty in temperature is too conventionally written the same way besides, due east.one thousand. "The output of the rut exchanger experiences an increase of 72 °F" or "Our standard doubtfulness is ±5 °F". Even so, some authors instead use the notation "An increase of 50 F°" (reversing the symbol lodge) to signal temperature differences. Similar conventions exist for the Celsius scale, meet Celsius § Temperatures and intervals.[x] [11]

Conversion (specific temperature bespeak) [edit]

For an exact conversion between degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius, and kelvins of a specific temperature point, the post-obit formulas can be applied. Here, f is the value in degrees Fahrenheit, c the value in degrees Celsius, and thou the value in kelvins:

  • f  °F to c  °C: c = f − 32 / 1.8
  • c  °C to f  °F: f = c × 1.8 + 32
  • f  °F to 1000  K: k = f + 459.67 / 1.8
  • thou  Yard to f  °F: f = k × one.8 − 459.67

At that place is also an exact conversion between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales making use of the correspondence −40 °F ≘ −40 °C. Again, f is the numeric value in degrees Fahrenheit, and c the numeric value in degrees Celsius:

  • f  °F to c  °C: c = f + xl / 1.eight − forty
  • c  °C to f  °F: f = ( c + forty) × 1.8 − xl

Conversion (temperature difference or interval) [edit]

When converting a temperature interval between the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales, only the ratio is used, without any constant (in this example, the interval has the same numeric value in kelvins every bit in degrees Celsius):

  • f  °F to c  °C or k  1000: c = m = f / i.eight
  • c  °C or k  K to f  °F: f = c × i.eight = k × 1.eight

History [edit]

Fahrenheit proposed his temperature scale in 1724, basing it on two reference points of temperature. In his initial scale (which is not the last Fahrenheit scale), the zero point was determined by placing the thermometer in "a mixture of ice, h2o, and salis Armoniaci [note 1] [transl. ammonium chloride] or even body of water salt".[12] This combination forms a eutectic system, which stabilizes its temperature automatically: 0 °F was defined to exist that stable temperature. A second signal, 96 degrees, was approximately the human body's temperature.[12] A third point, 32 degrees, was marked every bit existence the temperature of water ice and water "without the aforementioned salts".[12]

According to a German story, Fahrenheit really chose the lowest air temperature measured in his hometown Danzig (Gdańsk, Poland) in winter 1708–09 equally 0 °F, and merely later had the demand to be able to make this value reproducible using brine.[thirteen]

According to a letter Fahrenheit wrote to his friend Herman Boerhaave,[14] his scale was built on the work of Ole Rømer, whom he had met earlier. In Rømer scale, alkali freezes at zip, water freezes and melts at vii.5 degrees, body temperature is 22.5, and h2o boils at lx degrees. Fahrenheit multiplied each value by 4 in order to eliminate fractions and make the calibration more fine-grained. He then re-calibrated his scale using the melting point of ice and normal human body temperature (which were at thirty and 90 degrees); he adjusted the scale then that the melting signal of ice would be 32 degrees, and body temperature 96 degrees, so that 64 intervals would separate the two, assuasive him to mark degree lines on his instruments by merely bisecting the interval 6 times (since 64 = ii6).[fifteen] [xvi]

Fahrenheit soon afterward observed that water boils at about 212 degrees using this calibration.[17] The utilise of the freezing and boiling points of water as thermometer fixed reference points became popular following the work of Anders Celsius, and these fixed points were adopted past a committee of the Royal Society led by Henry Cavendish in 1776.[18] Under this arrangement, the Fahrenheit scale is redefined slightly so that the freezing point of water was exactly 32 °F, and the humid point was exactly 212 °F, or 180 degrees higher. Information technology is for this reason that normal homo body temperature is approximately 98.six °F (oral temperature) on the revised calibration (whereas it was 90° on Fahrenheit's multiplication of Rømer, and 96° on his original scale).[19]

In the present-day Fahrenheit scale, 0 °F no longer corresponds to the eutectic temperature of ammonium chloride brine as described in a higher place. Instead, that eutectic is at approximately 4 °F on the last Fahrenheit scale.[annotation ii]

The Rankine temperature scale was based upon the Fahrenheit temperature scale, with its naught representing absolute zip instead.

Usage [edit]

General [edit]

 Countries that use Fahrenheit (°F).

 Countries that use both Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C).

 Countries that use Celsius (°C).

The Fahrenheit calibration was the primary temperature standard for climatic, industrial and medical purposes in English language-speaking countries until the 1960s. In the tardily 1960s and 1970s, the Celsius scale replaced Fahrenheit in well-nigh all of those countries—with the notable exception of the United states of america and in certain cases, the United Kingdom—typically during their general metrication process.

Fahrenheit is used in the U.s.a., its territories and associated states (all served past the U.S. National Weather Service), as well every bit the Cayman Islands and Liberia for everyday applications. For instance, U.S. weather forecasts, nutrient cooking, and freezing temperatures are typically given in degrees Fahrenheit. Scientists, including meteorologists, utilise degrees Celsius or kelvin in all countries.[20]

USA [edit]

Early on in the 20th century, Halsey and Dale suggested that reasons for resistance to apply the centigrade (now Celsius) system in the U.S. included the larger size of each caste Celsius and the lower zero signal in the Fahrenheit arrangement; put another mode, the Fahrenheit scale is more intuitive than Celsius for describing outdoor temperatures in temperate latitudes, with 100 °F beingness a hot summer mean solar day and 0 °F a cold winter solar day.[21]

Canada [edit]

Canada has passed legislation favoring the International Organization of Units, while also maintaining legal definitions for traditional Canadian imperial units.[22] Canadian conditions reports are conveyed using degrees Celsius with occasional reference to Fahrenheit especially for cross-border broadcasts. Fahrenheit is withal used on virtually all Canadian ovens.[23] Thermometers, both digital and analog, sold in Canada usually utilize both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales.[24] [25] [26]

European Spousal relationship [edit]

European laundry symbol for "Launder at 40 °C"

In the European Marriage, it is mandatory to use kelvins or degrees Celsius when quoting temperature for "economic, public wellness, public safety and authoritative" purposes, though degrees Fahrenheit may be used aslope degrees Celsius as a supplementary unit.[27] For example, the laundry symbols used in the United Kingdom follow the recommendations of ISO 3758:2005 showing the temperature of the washing machine water in degrees Celsius only.[28] The equivalent label in Due north America uses one to six dots to denote temperature with an optional temperature in degrees Celsius.[29] [30]

United Kingdom [edit]

Although Fahrenheit was the nigh popular scale in the Great britain, for many years Celsius has been the primary scale used, and information technology has been taught in schools since the 1970s.[31] Inside unregulated sectors, such as journalism, the employ of Fahrenheit in the U.k. follows no stock-still pattern, with degrees Fahrenheit sometimes appearing alongside degrees Celsius. The Daily Telegraph does not mention Fahrenheit on its daily weather folio,[32] while The Times as well has an all-metric daily weather page just has a Celsius-to-Fahrenheit conversion table.[33] When publishing news stories, some UK tabloids have adopted a tendency of using degrees Celsius in headlines and discussion relating to low temperatures and Fahrenheit for mid to high temperatures.[34] [discuss] In February 2006, the writer of an article in The Times suggested that the rationale was one of emphasis: "−6 °C" sounds colder than "21 °F", and "94 °F" sounds more impressive than "34 °C".[35]

Unicode representation of symbol [edit]

Unicode provides the Fahrenheit symbol at lawmaking signal U+2109 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT. However, this is a compatibility graphic symbol encoded for roundtrip compatibility with legacy encodings. The Unicode standard explicitly discourages the utilize of this character: "The sequence U+00B0 ° Caste SIGN + U+0046 F LATIN Majuscule LETTER F is preferred over U+2109 Caste FAHRENHEIT, and those ii sequences should exist treated as identical for searching."[36]

Notes [edit]

  1. ^ "Sal Armoniac" was an impure form of ammonium chloride. The French chemist Nicolas Lémery (1645–1715) discussed information technology in his book Cours de Chymie (A Course of Chemistry, 1675), describing where information technology occurs naturally and how it can exist prepared artificially. Information technology occurs naturally in the deserts of northern Africa, where it forms from puddles of creature urine. It tin be prepared artificially by boiling 5 parts of urine, 1 part of bounding main salt, and ½ part of chimney soot until the mixture has dried. The mixture is then heated in a sublimation pot until it sublimates; the sublimated crystals are sal Armoniac. Come across:
