Fahrenheit (°F)

Fahrenheit is the temperature scale used in the United States and a few Caribbean nations. Unlike Celsius or Kelvin, it doesn’t directly align with water’s properties for easy conversion, making it less practical for scientific work but still prevalent in everyday American use.

Characteristics

  • Imperial system scale
  • Freezing point of water: 32°F
  • Boiling point of water: 212°F
  • Absolute zero: -459.67°F
  • Non-linear relationship to other scales due to arbitrary zero point

Conversion Formulas

  • To Celsius: °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
  • To Kelvin: K = (°F - 32) × 5/9 + 273.15
  • From Celsius: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32

Examples

  • Room temperature: 68-72°F
  • Body temperature: 98.6°F
  • Freezing point (water): 32°F
  • Boiling point (water): 212°F
