{{B}}Temperature{{/B}} Three scales of temperature, each of which permits a precise measurement, are in concurrent use: the Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin scales. These three different temperature scales were each developed by different people and have come to be used in different situations. The scale that is most widely used by the general public in the United States is the Fahrenheit scale. In 1714, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, a German physicist who was living in Holland and operating an instrument business, developed a mercury-in-glass thermometer and the temperature scale that still carries his name. His original scale had two fixed points: 0°was the lowest temperature that he could achieve in a solution of ice, water, and salt, and 96°was what he believed was the normal te A. On it, 0°was the freezing point of water. B. It was based on the lowest and highest temperatures that he could achieve with a mixture of salt and water. C. On it, 100° was the boiling point of water. D. It was based on an inaccurate understanding of the normal temperature of the human body. 更多"{{B}}Set 5{{/B}}"的相关试题: [单项选择]{{B}}Set 2{{/B}}
