Answer : The correct option is, (D) 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit

Explanation :

Conversion of degree Celsius to Kelvin :

\(K=^oC+273\)

Conversion of degree Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit :

\(^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32\)

By using these two conversion factors, we get the three temperature readings all mean the same thing.

For option A :

\(K=^oC+273=100+273=373K\)

\(^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 100)+32=212^oF\)

For option B :

\(K=^oC+273=100+273=373K\)

\(^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 100)+32=212^oF\)

For option C :

\(K=^oC+273=0+273=273K\)

\(^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 0)+32=32^oF\)

For option D :

\(K=^oC+273=0+273=273K\)

\(^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 0)+32=32^oF\)

From the given options, only option (D) is correct.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit
