(1) The temperature difference is 36 C. To get the Fahrenheit difference, multiply that by 9/5. It's about 65, to the nearest degree.
(2) Since K and C temperatures differ by a constant (273.2), the difference in K is also 36.
Suppose you are hiking down the Grand Canyon. At the top, the temperature early in the morning is a cool 1°C. By late afternoon, the temperature at the bottom of the canyon has warmed to a sweltering 37°C.
