  2. Rømer scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rømer_scale

    Rømer then saw that the freezing point of pure water was roughly one eighth of the way (about 7.5 degrees) between these two points, so he redefined the lower fixed point to be the freezing point of water at precisely 7.5 degrees. This did not greatly change the scale but made it easier to calibrate by defining it by reference to pure water.

  3. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    However, the deepest cryogenic points are based exclusively on the vapor pressure/temperature relationship of helium and its isotopes whereas the remainder of its cold points (those less than room temperature) are based on triple points. Examples of other defining points are the triple point of hydrogen (−259.3467 °C) and the freezing point ...

  4. Freezing air temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing_air_temperature

    Freezing [1] or frost occurs when the air temperature falls below the freezing point of water (0 °C, 32 °F, 273 K). This is usually measured at the height of 1.2 metres above the ground surface. This is usually measured at the height of 1.2 metres above the ground surface.

  5. Cooling curve - Wikipedia

    Below is an example of a cooling curve used in castings. The initial point of the graph is the starting temperature of the matter, here noted as the "pouring temperature". When the phase change occurs, there is a "thermal arrest"; that is, the temperature stays constant.

    The art project is a way for the preschoolers to learn to draw what they see, while making a connection with the dogs at the shelter. "My students loved drawing the dogs," said Berkowitz.
