If the temperature was 0ºC today, but tomorrow it is going to be twice as cold, what temperature would it be?

The absolute zero is about -273 C. Thus, if by twice as cold you mean half the temperature, tomorrow would be about -136.5 C. Such a small value has never been recorded naturally on Earth's surface, though.

It depends on the reference point. The term twice as cold tomorrow must refer to the difference between yesterday's temperature and today's. If yesterday was +2 and today was 0, then tomorrow it will be -2.

If 0 degree C is 32 degree F; is twice as cold 16 degrees F or 64 degrees F.

Well mathematically it would be 0 but weather wise if it's twice as cold it can't be 0 C (-32F) because if it was 4 C (39F) and it was twice as cold it would be 2 C (36F) so i would take a guess at -2C (28F)

-17.78 degrees Celcius...
hmm... because the temp was 0, it would be easier if you convert C to F. So if you convert 0 degrees celcius to fahrenheit it would be 32 degrees F, if it would be twice as cold, then less another 32 degrees F. so it would be 0 degrees fahrenheit. if you convert 0 degrees F to celcius it would be -17.78 degrees C. I'm not that quite sure... but that is what I think...

Monty, it's an ASCII code. (American Standard Code for International Interchange).
Simply press the ALT button and use your ten key to type 167 at the same time, and voila... º temperature sign.

i am guessing -32 degrees. i mean if 0 degrees is 32 degrees below freezing, then maybe it would be 32 degrees colder tomorrow. hence -32 degrees

32 degrees F today, tomorrow it is going to be -17.8 degrees C and 0 degrees F....

Define "twice as cold".

how did you get the small degree sign after the zero, I con`t seem to have that key.
