What are the Units of Temperature?
- Temperature is a way to measure how hot or cold something is.
- We use special names called units to show temperature.
- Some common units are Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
Examples:
- Celsius:
- In many countries, we often use Celsius for weather, like when we say it's 20C outside.
- This unit helps us understand if we need a jacket or can go out in a t-shirt.
- Fahrenheit:
- In the US, people often use Fahrenheit, like when it's 68F on a sunny day.
- This unit helps us decide if we can play outside comfortably.
- Kelvin:
- Scientists use Kelvin for very cold or very hot things, like when studying stars.
- In this unit, an interesting number is 273 K, which is freezing!
