The difference between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale is; the temperature that is assigned a value of zero. 0℃ - Freezing/Melting point of water. 0K Coldest possible temperature. – Lord Kelvin’s major contribution to the concept of temperature was; that there is a lowest possible temperature called zero.’ It is ‘absolute impossible to reach. A thermogram is made by; film and electronic devices convert the infrared radiation into colors that can be interpreted as differences in temperature. If you were told that an object had a temperature of -14℃, you would not pick it up with your bare hands normally because it would feel too cold… but you could for a short period of time. One person might touch an object and say that it is cool while another person might say that it is warm because it will depend on if they were warm or cool before they touched it. Eg: if they were warm, it will feel cool. If a classmate told you that the coldest temperature ever recorded in NL was -21℃, you would tell them that are wrong because they would have experienced this temperature and colder ones many times.
