Glossary » Units » Temperature » Kelvin
Kelvin (K) is a unit in the category of Temperature. It is also known as kelvins. This unit is commonly used in the SI unit system. Kelvin (K) has a dimension of Q where Q is temperatur. This unit is the standard SI unit in this category.
Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).
Other units in the category of Temperature include Celsius Degree (°C), Fahrenheit Degree (°F), and Rankine Degree (°R).
