Rankine to Newton
Please provide values below to convert Rankine [°R] to Newton [°N], or change ↔.
Rankine [°R]
Definition: The Rankine scale is an absolute temperature scale where 0°R is absolute zero, and the degree increments are the same as those in the Fahrenheit scale.
Historyandorigin: It was named after the Scottish physicist William John Macquorn Rankine. It was introduced in the 19th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in some engineering applications, particularly in the United States.
funfact: The Rankine scale is similar to the Fahrenheit scale but starts at absolute zero.
Newton [°N]
Definition: The Newton scale (°N) is a temperature scale where 0°N corresponds to the freezing point of water, and 33°N corresponds to the boiling point of water.
Historyandorigin: Developed by Sir Isaac Newton in the early 18th century, this scale was intended as an alternative to the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.
funfact: Newton’s scale was one of the earliest attempts to quantify temperature scientifically, but it never gained widespread use.
CurrentUse: The Newton scale is now obsolete and is mostly referenced in historical contexts.

How to Convert Rankine to Newton
1 Rankine [°R] = -91.185555556 Newton [°N]
1 Newton [°N] = 378.12272727 Rankine [°R]
we use cross multiplication method
Rankine [°R] → Newton [°N]
1 → -91.185555556
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*-91.185555556=1*x
by simplifying
x=-91.063333333
