Kelvin (K)
Definition: Kelvin (K) is the SI base unit of temperature, where 0 K represents absolute zero—the theoretical point where molecular motion stops.
History: Developed by William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) in the 19th century to provide an absolute thermodynamic scale.
Current use: Used in scientific research, physics, and engineering to measure absolute temperature and for thermodynamic calculations.
Fahrenheit (°F)
Definition: Fahrenheit (°F) is a temperature scale where 32°F is the freezing point of water and 212°F is the boiling point at 1 atm pressure.
History: Created by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724, originally based on a brine solution and human body temperature.
Current use: Primarily used in the United States for weather forecasting, cooking, and heating/cooling systems.
