Kelvin is used to measure
A
Angle
B
Solid Angle
C
Temperature
D
Intensity of flame
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The kelvin is the SI unit of thermodynamic temperature, and one of the seven SI base units. Unusually in the SI, we also define another unit of temperature, called the degree Celsius (°C). Temperature in degrees Celsius is obtained by subtracting 273.15 from the numerical value of the temperature expressed in kelvin.

Detailed explanation-2: -All light sources have a specific measurement on the color temperature scale, known as Kelvin scale, which ranges from around 1000 Kelvin to 10.000 Kelvins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Celsius vs Kelvin The major difference is that when water freezes, a Celsius thermometer will read 0°C, and a Kelvin thermometer will read 273.15 K. The scales differ by 273.15. Thus, to convert from °C to K simply add 273; if a thermometer reads 31°C then the temperature in Kelvin is 304K.
