Zero. Other scales like Celsius and Fahrenheit have negative numbers. Kelvin starts at zero.

it may actually be absolute zero

-460 degrees what sacle is Fahrenheit celsiusor kelvin?

The lowest possible temperature on the Celsius scale is -273.15 degrees Celsius. The lowest possible temperature on the Kelvin scale is 0 degrees Kelvin. Therefore the only temperature scale on which -460 degrees is possible is the Fahrenheit scale.

Why does the kelvin thermometer start from -273 Celsius temperature?

The idea is to start at absolute zero - the lowest possible temperature. This happens to be -273.16 on the Centigrade (Celsius) scale. The Kelvin scale has no negative temperatures; zero degrees Kelvin is the lowest possible temperature.


What is absolute zero of temperature?

The lowest possible temperature. On the Kelvin scale, this temperature is zero degrees; on the Celsius scale, about minus 273 degrees.


What temperature scale does absolute zero appear?

Absolute zero is the lowest number on the Kelvin scale. It can be converted to Celsius and Fahrenheit.


What is the lowest scale in Celsius?

The lowest possible temperature on the Celsius scale is -273.15 °C. This is the same as 0 K on the Kelvin scale, which is the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature. This temperature is called absolute zero, because it is the point where all molecular motion stops.


What does absolute temperature mean?

Absolute temperature is the same as the Kelvin temperature scale. Zero degrees Kelvin is the lowest possible temperature, meaning that there is no heat at all. It is equal to minus 273 degrees Celsius.


What temperature scale does not use degree?

The temperature scale that has no negative values is the Kelvin scale, because it has its zero point at the lowest possible measurable temperature (absolute zero).The similarly based scale using Fahrenheit intervals (degrees) is the Rankine scale. The Kelvin scale starts at (the minimum) absolute zero. (0 K = -273 oC)


What is the location in Kelvin at the bottom of Earth?

It isn't. Kelvin is a measurement of temperature on an absolute scale (0 Kelvin is the lowest possible temperature, 0 Celsius is about 273 Kelvin). The Earth's core temperature is about 5778 Kelvin around the same as the surface of the sun, so says Wikipedia


What type of scale did lord Kelvin develop?

What scale shows absolute zero as zero?

Kelvin temperature scale uses absolute zero as the zero. Though you can find absolute zero in all temperature scales i.e. −459.67 degrees Fahrenheit and -273.15 degrees Celsius. But Kelvin is the scale that absolute zero is 0.
