On a linear temperature scale Y , water freezes at -160^ Y and boils at -50^ Y . On this Y scale, a temperature of 340 ~K would be read as : (water freezes at 273 ~K and boils at 373 ~K )

Options

  1. A-73.7^ Y
  2. B-233.7^ Y
  3. C-86.3^ Y
  4. D-106.3^ Y

Correct answer

C. -86.3^ Y

Step-by-step solution

Reading on any scale - LFP UFP - LFP = constant for all scales 340-273 373-273 = ^ y -(-160) -50-(-160) 67 100 = y +160 110 y=-86.3^ y
