Temperature Conversion and Scales

The video tutorial introduces the concept of temperature, explaining it as a measure of hotness or coldness. It covers how temperature is measured using thermometers, focusing on the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales. The tutorial explains the freezing and boiling points of water on both scales and provides formulas for converting temperatures between them. Examples are given to illustrate these conversions. The session concludes with instructions for exercises and a math lab activity.
