If x is the temperature of a system in Kelvin and y is the temperature of the system in °C, then the correct relation between them is
General KnowledgePhysics
- Ax = 273 – y
- Bx = 273+ y
- Cx = 173+ y
- Dx = 173 – y
Explanation
The Kelvin and Celsius scales are offset by 273.15 degrees, so temperature in kelvin equals temperature in degrees Celsius plus 273. With x in kelvin and y in degrees Celsius, x = 273 + y. Hence B.
