About Fahrenheit (°F)
Developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724, the Fahrenheit scale places water's freezing point at 32 degrees F and boiling point at 212 degrees F. The United States remains its primary user for weather forecasts, cooking, and thermostat settings. Normal human body temperature is approximately 98.6 degrees F on this scale.
About Kelvin (K)
The kelvin is the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature, with 0 K representing absolute zero -- the theoretical point where all molecular motion ceases. Scientists and engineers use kelvin in thermodynamics, astrophysics (the Sun's surface is about 5,778 K), and color temperature for lighting (e.g., 6500 K daylight).
