On celcius scale the temperature of body increases by \(40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The increase in temperature on Fahrenheit scale is _______.

  1. A \(70^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  2. B \(68^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  3. C  \(72^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(75^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C)  \(72^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that per \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) change is equivalent to \(1.8^{\circ}\) change in \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\). \(\therefore 40^{\circ}\) change on celcius scale will corresponds to \(72^{\circ}\) change on Fahrenheit scale. Hence option \((3)\)
