If a thermometer is wrong calibrated then, If X is the temperature reading on the faulty thermometer scale then, t =(X-LFP)/(UFP-LFP) × 100 . t= actual reading Now UFP=99°C LFP= 5°C X= 52°C t= 50°C= 122°F

If a thermometer is wrong calibrated then,

If X is the temperature reading on the faulty thermometer scale then, 

t =(X-LFP)/(UFP-LFP) × 100 . t= actual reading

Now UFP=99°C

          LFP= 5°C 

           X= 52°C 

            t= 50°C= 122°F

The Earth moving round the Sun in a circular orbit is acted upon by a force, and hence
work must be done on the Earth by this force. Do you agree with this statement?
