Rømer to Newton Converter

About Rømer (°Rø) and Newton (°N) Units

The Rømer scale (°Rø) is developed by the Danish astronomer Ole Rømer in 1701. In this system, water freezes at 7.5°Rø and boils at 60°Rø. Rømer created this scale while studying the freezing and boiling points of water for practical scientific measurements. It is no longer used in modern temperature measurements but remains important in historical studies. The Newton scale (°N) is a historical temperature scale created by the English scientist Isaac Newton in the early 18th century. In this system, 0°N corresponds to the freezing point of water, and 33°N roughly corresponds to the boiling point of water. Newton developed this scale while studying how liquids expand when heated. Although it is no longer in use today, the Newton scale is of historical significance and is sometimes referenced in studies of early temperature measurement systems.
