Newton to Kelvin Conversion

The Newton and Kelvin scales are both used to measure temperature. While the Newton scale is an historical scale, Kelvin is the internationally recognized SI unit for temperature, crucial for scientific applications.

Understanding the Newton Scale

The Newton scale, developed by Sir Isaac Newton, is a historical temperature scale. It's a descending scale where the freezing point of water is 0°N and the boiling point of water is 33°N.

Understanding the Kelvin Scale

The Kelvin scale is the SI unit of temperature, an absolute scale where absolute zero (the lowest possible temperature) is defined as 0 Kelvin (0 K). This scale is widely used in scientific research and engineering.

Converting Newton to Kelvin

To convert a temperature from the Newton scale to the Kelvin scale, follow these steps:

1. Convert Newton to Celsius:

Use the following formula:

Celsius (°C) = Newton (°N) * (100/33)

2. Convert Celsius to Kelvin:

Use the following formula:

Kelvin (K) = Celsius (°C) + 273.15

By following these steps, you can accurately convert temperatures from the Newton scale to the Kelvin scale.
