What is the formula to convert from Rømer to Kelvin?

The formula to convert temperature value from the unit of Rømer to the unit of Kelvin is:

Temperature_(Kelvin) = (Temperature_(Rømer) - 7.5) × 40 / 21 + 273.15

Rømer unit in Temperature

The Rømer scale, proposed by Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701, was an early attempt to standardize temperature measurement. On this scale, the freezing point of water is set at 7.5 degrees, and the boiling point is 60 degrees. The Rømer scale was one of the first to be based on the properties of water, and it laid the foundation for later developments in temperature measurement, including the Celsius scale. Although it has been largely superseded, the Rømer scale remains of historical significance, particularly in the history of science and the development of meteorology and thermometry in Denmark.

Kelvin unit in Temperature

The Kelvin scale, developed by the Scottish physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin, is an absolute thermodynamic temperature scale used extensively in scientific and engineering disciplines. Unlike the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, Kelvin starts at absolute zero, the theoretical temperature at which all atomic motion ceases. The Kelvin scale is fundamental in fields such as physics and astronomy, where absolute temperature measurements are crucial. One Kelvin degree is equivalent to one degree Celsius, but the Kelvin scale does not include negative numbers, simplifying calculations in thermodynamics and quantum physics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about "Rømer ➜ Kelvin" Conversion

1. What is the conversion formula from Rømer to Kelvin?

The formula to convert Rømer to Kelvin in Temperature is:

(Rømer - 7.5) * 40 / 21 + 273.15

2. How do I convert from Rømer to Kelvin given a value in Rømer units?

To convert Temperature from Rømer to Kelvin, you can use the following formula:

(Rømer - 7.5) * 40 / 21 + 273.15

For example, if you have a value in Rømer, you substitute that value in place of Rømer in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Kelvin.
