On a video chad said that temperature is directly proportional to Energy through another formula that's not important to memorize. My question is that does the temperature have to be in Celsius or Kelvin? because a change from 1 Celsius to 2 Celsius is not considered doubled if temp was suppose to be in Kelvin ( 273 to 275)
 
The unit for temperature is Kelvin, using anything eles will give you incorrect results. The only time when it would be ok to use Celsius is when you're talking about temp differences and you're calculating Tf-Ti.

You're back. 👍
 
Yes, mostly. Having to go to work sucks just as much as I remembered. 😀👎

Yea, the only thing keeping me going is knowing (hoping) that in a year I'll be able to quit and start med school!
