If the temperature of an object has changed from 273 Kelvin to 290 Kelvin, by how many degrees Celsius has its temperature increased?

Question

 If the temperature of an object has changed from 273 Kelvin to 290 Kelvin, by how many degrees Celsius has its temperature increased?

Answer 1

Differences in temperature are the same in both scales.

 

ΔT in °C is the same as ΔT in °K, even though °C ≠ °K.

 

ΔT = (290 - 273) = 17 in both °C and °K
