If it's zero degrees and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, what will the temperature be?

In my latest blog, I answer, the so called "unanswerable question". If it's zero degrees and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, what will the temperature be?

STRICTLY MATH ANSWER

Zero, because zero times zero = zero.

This is why people say it's unanswerable because if it's twice as cold, it can't be the same temperature.

The problem is, this is strictly not a math question.

PHYCOLOGICAL ANSWER

Some people may say that 70 degrees Fahrenheit is cold, others may say it is hot. So to answer the question physiologically, the answer would vary based on what each individual person considered cold. So if I believe it is no longer considered warm at 67 degrees, but cold, then at 0 degrees Fahrenheit it would be 67 degrees cold. So that means it would be 67 degrees colder tomorrow, so the answer, from my point of view, would be -67. But if you believe it is no longer considered warm at 70 degrees, then the answer would be -70.

Technically this is the correct way to figure out the problem, because cold is a feeling. One of the definitions of cold is "a temperature that is uncomfortable for humans."

At the same time cold really isn't really a thing. Cold is just a lack of heat. 

SCIENTIFIC ANSWER

Another definition of cold is "Not Heated". This is what I would call the scientific definition.

The question would be easy if the question was twice as warm.

The problem is that really other than in terms to feeling, there is no such thing as cold. If there was no sources of heat then the temperature would always be absolute zero ( -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit ). It is only because of the sun and other energy/heat that it is warmer. It only gets "colder" when heat is removed, which is due to the Second Law of Thermodynamics. In laymen's terms heat warms the air to an average temperature. So if it is zero degrees that means the sun and other sources of heat have warmed the earth up 459.67 degrees. Since the warming process is constant, fluctuations in temperature are slight.

So since there is no such thing as cold, it can't be twice as cold. On the other hand if it was going to be twice as warm; if it is zero degrees Fahrenheit, it would be 459.67 warm. So twice as warm would be 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit.
