Rankine to Romer
Please provide values below to convert Rankine [°R] to Romer [°Rø], 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.
Romer [°Rø]
Definition: The Rømer scale (°Rø) is a temperature scale where 0°Rø corresponds to the freezing point of brine and 60°Rø corresponds approximately to the boiling point of water.
Historyandorigin: Developed by Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701, this scale was an early attempt at a standardized temperature measurement system.
funfact: The Rømer scale influenced the later development of the Celsius scale, which was based on similar reference points.
CurrentUse: The Rømer scale is now largely obsolete but is of historical significance in the development of temperature measurement.

How to Convert Rankine to Romer
1 Rankine [°R] = -134.88888889 Romer [°Rø]
1 Romer [°Rø] = 135.3956044 Rankine [°R]
we use cross multiplication method
Rankine [°R] → Romer [°Rø]
1 → -134.88888889
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*-134.88888889=1*x
by simplifying
x=-134.38333333
