How to scale temperature and other measurements

Temperature Scaling

What’s it mean if the temperature is going to be 30% warmer or 30% cooler?

Distance Scaling

Let’s take something that we know works: distances. If I have a distance that’s 2 meters, 30% more is (x=2, s=0.3; x*(1+s)) 2.6 meters, and 30% less is (x=2, s=-0.3; x*(1+s)) 1.4 meters. Covert these three values to feet, you get 6.56, 8.53, and 4.59 respectively. If we plug these numbers back into our scaling equation: more is (x=6.56, s=0.3; x*(1+s)) 8.528 feet, and less is (x=6.56, s=-0.3; x*(1+s)) 4.592 feet. These values are slightly off due to rounding.

Fixing Temperature

The problem with temperature is that it’s not zero-based. A value some incremental amount warmer than 5 degrees Fahrenheit is still cold. We need to “normalize” temperature. To do that, we have to find a value such that anything warmer feels warmer, and anything cooler feels cooler. We’re going to use 22°C (72°F) for this value.
