Fahrenheit is a temperature
scale named after the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit
(1686–1736), who proposed it in 1724. In this scale, the freezing
point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit (written "32 °F"), and the
boiling point is 212 degrees, placing the boiling and freezing points
of water exactly 180 degrees apart. On the Celsius scale, the freezing
and boiling points of water are exactly 100 degrees apart, thus
the unit of this scale, a degree Fahrenheit, is 5/9 of a degree
Celsius. Negative 40 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 °F) is equal to negative
40 degrees Celsius (-40 °C).
