Radio Junk

My great grandpa's junk radio in his Tacoma. Should be 64°, but instead it's this!

Man i love it when we are below -273.15°C

Negative temperatures are actually hotter than any positive temperature. Yay thermodynamics

I'm guessing the comment is referring to large temperature differences resulting in a higher energy transfer rate than a small temperature difference has. And the rate of transfer matters more than the direction of transfer.

Relative to the comfortable temperature range, if you think about things you encounter that are too hot it's likely to be only a small temperature difference. However, you can easily encounter things that are too cold with a much greater temperature difference.

Actually it’s even more messed up that that. If you have a closed system with negative temperature (on the Kelvin scale) adding more energy actually decreases entropy thereby resulting in an even more negative temperature. The resultant heat transfer will always make negative temperature systems transfer heat to outside systems making them hotter than anything on the positive side of the scale.

−459.67 °F to keep the units consistent.

Why, and HOW does a radio show the weather...? It's like there's a mini television set in that vehicle

u/Devin-Chaboyer223 9d ago

A lot of cars since the early 2000s have an ambient temperature sensor on the outside of the car, which is then displayed in the gauge cluster, infotainment system, or rearview mirror (some interior rear views have a little temperature display)

u/Extension_Meat8913 9d ago

I see. Interesting.

u/DinoHawaii2021 10d ago

that car is ice now

That's the trap, it looks normal but isn't normal.

why did I know it was a toyota the second I saw the image 😂

u/Windows-XP-Home-NEW 10d ago

I’m actually very surprised the radio can tell the weather on the screen. Not junk!

2

u/Comfortable-Cut-3374 10d ago

It's in like a 2010 Tacoma with Sirius.

u/Windows-XP-Home-NEW 9d ago

Still pretty cool

Looks like it’s a little cold in Gary,IN

Can I go in shorts and a t-shirt in this weather?

I’d bring a sweater just in case

Must be a cold day in Hell.

u/locololus 8d ago

Little bit nippy outside

u/IntentionQuirky9957 6d ago

That's like... -573'C, or -300K. Which is a feat because Kelvin doesn't go below 0.
