Temperature Concepts Questions
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales intersect at -40 degrees. Using the conversion formula F = (9/5)C + 32, when C = -40, F = -40. At 0°C, F = 32. At 40°C, F = 104. Only -40 gives identical values on both scales.

A
Correct answer
Explanation
-40°F equals -40°C because the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales intersect at this point. The conversion formula is C = (F - 32) × 5/9. At -40°F: (-40 - 32) × 5/9 = -72 × 5/9 = -40°C. This is the only temperature where both scales read the same numerical value.

21.7 C
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Normal human body temperature is 36.9°C (98.6°F), which is the standard baseline for human health. Option C (98.6°C) incorrectly uses the Fahrenheit numerical value but labels it as Celsius.

D
Correct answer
Explanation
The code starts with observation 75 out of 500. The FIRSTOBS=75 option means the first observation read is number 75. Since observations 1-74 are skipped, the remaining observations from 75 to 500 are copied to TEMP. 500 - 74 = 426 observations.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
This is a DATA step with nested DO loops, but there's no OUTPUT statement. By default, SAS DATA steps write only one observation at the end of the step, after all processing. The DO loops merely increment the SALARY variable multiple times (300 * 3 * 4 = 3600 added), but without explicit OUTPUT, only one record is written.
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Under normal operating procedures for typical SP systems, if the temperature goes below a threshold, it does not trigger a restart. Typically, restarts or shutdowns occur only when temperatures exceed high safety thresholds to prevent hardware damage.

A
Correct answer
Explanation
The equivalence partitions are: below 18 (heating on), 18-21 (no change needed), and above 21 (heating off). Valid partitions are <18, 18-21, >21. To cover all valid partitions with minimum values: pick one from each partition - 15 (<18), 19 (18-21), and 25 (>21). This set of three values validates each equivalence class.

D
Correct answer
Explanation
If blade angle is less than 45 degrees or more than 90 degrees then instead of removing calculus, it would burnish and smoothen it.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
(0C/100) = (0F – 32)/180
5/100 = (0F – 32)/180
9 = 0F – 320F = 41

A
Correct answer
Explanation
According to gas equation, PV = µRT
PV = (M/Mw)RT [as µ = M/Mw]
Or P/ρT = R/Mw [as M/V = ρ]
Now as M and R are same for top and bottom
(P/ρT)T = (P/ρT)B
i.e., ρT /ρB = (PT/PB) x (TB/TT)
So, ρT/ρB = (70/76) x (300/280)
= 75/76 = 0.9868
