Here’s another quiz: I can’t call it counter-intuitive because it doesn’t have much to do with intuition. More with simple knowledge.<\/p>\n

Read the four statements below. Only ONE is correct. Which one is it? Answer is in the first comment to this post.<\/p>\n

a. Fahrenheit defined the human body temperature (his!) on his newly invented temperature scale as 100. This got later revised to 98.6 degrees.<\/p>\n

b. Celsius invented a temperature scale where 0 degrees would indicate the temperature of boiling water, and 100 degrees that of melting ice.<\/p>\n

c. ‘Absolute zero’ on Kelvin’s temperature scale equals -273 Celsius.<\/p>\n

d. Nowadays the R\u00c3\u00a9amur temperature scale is only used to measure the temperature of milk in the making of pizza dough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
