Solution

Q.
A faulty thermometer reads 5°C in melting ice and 95°C in steam. The correct temperature on the absolute scale will be _____ K when the faulty thermometer reads 41°C. [2023]

Ans.
(313)

$\frac{41 ° - 5 °}{95 ° - 5 °} = \frac{C - 0 °}{100 ° - 0 °}$

$\Rightarrow C = \frac{36}{90} \times 100 = 40 ° C = 313 K$
