Recently, there has been debate about why the United States has not switched to Celsius thermometers. To understand this choice, it helps to study the history of the Fahrenheit scale. In 1708, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit met a famous astronomer named Ole Romer who was working on developing a new temperature scale (Veritasium). Because Daniel Fahrenheit liked Romer’s scale so much, he adopted it as his own. While this scale might have a seemingly odd freezing (32) and boiling point (212), this invention gave people the ability to get consistent measurements with their thermometer, making it groundbreaking. Although the Celsius scale was adopted a few decades later, the British Empire liked the Fahrenheits scale, which is how this system became established in North America (Kiger).
Today, we know that the metric and Celsius systems function on tens, making them easier to calculate. Yet Jay Hendricks from the Thermodynamic Metrology Group in his response to How Stuff Works described one major benefit to the use of the Fahrenheit system when he said, “It has more degrees over the range of ambient temperatures that are typical for most people” (Kiger). In other words, the difference between one degree of Fahrenheit is smaller and thus more precise than the difference between one degree of Celsius. Moreover, it is evident that Farhenheit was a logical choice for its time. As the debate continues, consider the history and value of the Fahrenheit system in conjunction with the more widely used Celsius system to find the most accurate way to measure temperature.
