If it's 0 degrees celcius today, and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow?

How cold will it be tomorrow?

Update:

I want an answer in degrees celcius please!

    -136.575 degrees Celsius?

    Edit: Why do people think 0 fahrenheit has something to do with it?

    Absolute zero = -273.15 celsius.

    ..convert to kelvin scale to get your answer.

    0 X 2 degrees celcius.

    It makes sense to think of how much colder the weather is than our blood temperature. If our bodies cool down or heat up too much, our enzymes (the catalysts that help us to digest our food) buckle out of shape and don't work properly and we may die as a result.

    A healthy person's body temperature fluctuates between 36.1°C and 37.8°C, with the average being 37°C.

    If the temperature today is zero degrees C, that's 37°C below our blood temperature.

    To be twice as cold, compared to our own body temperature tomorrow, the air temperature will have to be minus 37°C.

    This question seems to pop up a lot. Does twice as cold = half as warm??? If that is the case, Dr. Quills has it right. One has to first decide on the scale, and what the starting point is. In the case of temperature, the starting point would be absolute zero, or -273.15 Celsius.

    Twice as hot, twice as cold (or any other ratio) has no real meaning in terms of temperature and the weather.

    If you want to talk about the amount of heat in an object then it would make sense, but heat is not the same as temperature.

    convert 0 deg celcius into farenheit, half it, then convert back into celcus. this gives 32 degrees farenheit at 0 degrees c. half it, 16 degrees farenheit which is -9 degrees celcius

    so half of 0 deg c is -9 deg c

    Twice 0 is still 0 so the answer to the question is that it will be zero again .

  • 1 decade ago

    I Think that 0 Celsius is 32 Fahrenheit

    which is freezing

    so my guess is 16 Fahrenheit

    or

    -8.5 c

    What does "twice as cold mean"?

    'Twice as' means doubling so will it be warmer tomorrow? In which case today is half as cold as it will be tomorrow.

    Ok. First, you've got to convert it to Kelvin, a unit of absolute temperature:

    0 C = 273.15 K.

    Then halve it:

    273.15 / 2 = 136.575 K

    Then convert to Celsius:

    136.575 - 273.15 = -136.575 Celsius, which is bloody cold.
