wow... now that is over the board! O__O Is there such laws that imperial system is banned? |
Llonka; I'm a care assistant. I help them with. Basically all their personal care, washing, dressing, eating, drinking, that kind of thing.
Xuv; it's the same pay rate here for nights as it is for days. But I think it's supposed to be higher because of "unsociable hours." |
I'm terrible at the metric system and can somewhat estimate what Celsius temperatures are in Fahrenheit. I can't give any exact numbers, but I do know that 40°C is hot~

@Anarchy: I know that, but I can't visualize, say, 20 meters. Not even one.

0C, exact temperature from water to ice. 100C, boiling temperature, from water to air/gas. |
It's complicated how the law works but they were essentially fined under the Weights and Measures Act because their scales couldn't be passed by an inspector since they used imperial measurements. They started a campaign under the name 'Metric Martyrs'.
As an aside, I went to school with the nephew of the original defendant. |

I am a worrier too, what if this and what if that. Go rest if you are so tired. |
Night Sleepy!
I'm used to converting temperatures into Kelvin to shove them into equations. |

@Xuv: That I also know. We're taught that much in school. 0°C = 32°F and 100°C = 212°F~ I remember a little bit of teaching in elementary school on a formula to convert between the two exactly, but I don't quite remember it.
A martyr is someone who gets killed under the law for their beliefs, yes? Usually associated with religion. |

Now what is this kelvin temperature? DX I heard of it, but I don't know where it is use. I read about it when I am studying my Lighting class. ---------- Post added 02-22-2013 at 02:45 PM ---------- Quote:
I don't even care to know that. and I am in the business of scale matters. I will have a 'bridge' between us consultant with the imperial workers. x.x ---------- Post added 02-22-2013 at 02:47 PM ---------- I scared everyone away!!! T__T |
Where IS Kelvin used? It always looks like so much. XD
|
I also don't know the difference between watts and volt.
|
Kelvin is a temperature scale where 0 K is absolute zero, where thermal movement stops. 0°C is 273 K. I would mostly use it for thermodynamics, if you see T in an equation it probably means temperature in Kelvin.
Another aside, the River Kelvin runs along past the bottom of my street. |
O__O Underground river you mean?
|
I only need 20 more posts. Yay. :D
|
... lol. You are counting down like that! XD
Just post a lot, then you will reach it without knowing~ |
*Strolls in*
I'm watching Full Metal Panic. <3 |
Velvetvet... Fullmetal panic? anime?
