Fahrenheit invented the mercury thermometer in 1714, but it is unknown exactly how many he made. It divided the freezing and boiling points of water into 180 degrees. 32Â°F was the freezing point of water and 212Â°F was the boiling point of water, set by Fahrenheit himself. 0Â°F was based on the temperature of an equal mixture of water, ice, and salt. Fahrenheit based his scale on the temperature of the human body.
On the Celsius scale, the freezing and boiling points of water are 100 degrees apart. A temperature interval of 1 Â°F is equal to an interval of 5â9 degrees Celsius. The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales intersect at â40Â° (â40 Â°F and â40 Â°C represent the same temperature). Absolute zero is â273.15 Â°C or â459.67 Â°F.The Rankine temperature scale uses degree intervals of the same size as those of the Fahrenheit scale, except that absolute zero is 0 Râthe same way that the Kelvin temperature scale matches the Celsius scale, except that absolute zero is 0 K.ahrenheit (symbol Â°F) is a temperature scale based on one proposed in 1724 by the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686â1736), after whom the scale is named. There exist several accounts of how he originally defined his scale.
