Question

If it is 0 degrees today, but twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be tomorrow?

Answer 1

minus one degrees

Answer 2

0 degrees????

Answer 3

-2 ?

Answer 4

That depends what scale you are using.  F? C? K?

Answer 5

There is no such thing as "twice as cold".  Cold is not a quantity that can be doubled.  Cold is the lack of heat energy.  So it can be "half as hot" but not "twice as cold".  See the first answer given for the mathematics.

Answer 6

Mathematically speaking its going to be -136.575 degrees tomorrow.

In absolute temperature (Kelvins), 0 degrees would be 273.15 Kelvin. Half of it is 136.575 Kelvin which is -136.575 degrees Celcius.
