Is a rectal thermometer reading of 101 degrees equal to an oral thermometer reading of 101degrees?
No. Usually there is about a degree difference with the rectal temperature being about 1 degree higher.
Effect on thermometer reading if the thermometer is removed from the liquid when thermometer is being read?
It would depend on a contingency of variables. Being, how hot is the substance that it is being removed from, the temperature of the room, how long it takes from the time removed from the liquid until it is read, and the type of thermometer reading device.
How data is gathered?
It depends widely on the experiment being done. It could be reading a thermometer, looking at a color change, reading an instrument panel, or using a computer. These days, it is mostly through a computer for many experiments!
What you use a thermometer for in science?
A thermometer is used to find the temperature of something, being used in science or not.
Why should a clinical thermometer not be washed in hot water?
The idea is based avoiding use of the thermometer when it is reading "higher" than what it is that is being measured. Let's look at what's happening. If we wash a clinical thermometer in hot water, it will respond to that hot water. That will cause the reading to shoot up well above a hundred degrees. If we then try to use it, it will have to "cool down" under the tongue of the person we're using it on. It is actually being cooled by that person. The thermometer will take a relatively long time to reach the temperature of the individual whose temperature is being measured. And this time will vary, but will be longer than it would be for the thermometer to "come up" to temperature. One of the directions for using these thermometers is to first shake it down until it reads less than 95 degrees or so. If you're starting with a thermometer than has just been washed in hot water, you're not going to be able to shake it down per the directions. You'll have to run it under cool water for a bit to cool it so you can use it.
What did Galileos thermometer do to people?
Do to people really? WOW, the thermometer doesn't DO anything to people! Your so smart (being sarcastic) The thermometer is not called "Galileo's thermometer" Its called "The Galilen Thermometer" You should pay attension in school more, so you wouldnm't have to ask this question.

How do you take the reading of a thermometer?
After the thermometer has come into thermal equilibrium with the object being measured, the top level of the liquid (mercury or alcohol thermometer) is the temperature. The indicators will often also be colored red on mechanical (coil expansion) thermometers. Digital thermometers should be "locked" at the recorded temperature if the probe is to be removed before viewing, as it may heat or cool even during a very short interval.
