A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter, expressed in terms of units or degrees designated on a standard scale. [www.dictionary.com]
Ruby’s Definition:
Temperature is a measure of hot and coldness using a scale, such as Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin. Temperature is measured by using a thermometer.
The way I remember the word temperature is if you sound it out the word Temp-PER-a-ture you would hear the word perr and it kind of sounds like brrr as in brr I'm cold. And by thinking of coldness and the heat you may wonder the measure of how hot or cold it is and guess what? Thats what temperature is. :)
Cold- Having a relativity low temperature; lacking in warmth.
Fahrenheit- A temperature scaled (Fahrenheit scale) in which any number lower than 32°F represents the freezing point and any number above 212°F represents the boiling point.Symbol: F
Celsius- A temperature scale (The Celsius scale) in which 0°represents the freezing point and 100° represents the boiling point. Symbol: C
Kelvin- A absolute scale of temperature (Kelvin scale) in which the intervals are equal to the Celsius scale.
