What is the formula to convert from Newton to Rømer?

The formula to convert temperature value from the unit of Newton to the unit of Rømer is:

Temperature(Rømer) = Temperature(Newton) × 35 / 22 + 7.5

Newton unit in Temperature

The Newton scale, created by Sir Isaac Newton in the early 18th century, is one of the lesser-known temperature scales. It sets the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and the boiling point at 33 degrees. While the Newton scale did not achieve widespread adoption, it represents an early effort to create a standardized temperature scale based on natural reference points. Newton's work on this scale laid the groundwork for later developments in temperature measurement and contributed to the broader understanding of thermodynamics and heat transfer during the scientific revolution.

Rømer unit in Temperature

The Rømer scale, proposed by Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701, was an early attempt to standardize temperature measurement. On this scale, the freezing point of water is set at 7.5 degrees, and the boiling point is 60 degrees. The Rømer scale was one of the first to be based on the properties of water, and it laid the foundation for later developments in temperature measurement, including the Celsius scale. Although it has been largely superseded, the Rømer scale remains of historical significance, particularly in the history of science and the development of meteorology and thermometry in Denmark.
