A faulty thermometer reads \(5^{\circ} C\) in melting ice and \(95^{\circ} C\) in steam. The correct temperature on absolute scale will be. \(.........K\) when the faulty thermometer reads \(41^{\circ} C\).
- A \(312\)
- B \(311\)
- C \(313\)
- D \(310\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(313\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{41^{\circ}-5^{\circ}}{95^{\circ}-5^{\circ}}=\frac{ C -0^{\circ}}{100^{\circ}-0^{\circ}}\) \(\Rightarrow C =\frac{36}{90} \times 100=40^{\circ} C =313\,K\)
