What else can I help you with?
Why a clinical thermometer breaks when it is used to measure the temperature of boiling water?
Boiling is way far outside its operating range.
Why clinical thermometers are used to measure the temperature of boiling water?
Clinical thermometers are not used to measure the temperature of boiling water! They have a range of about 35oC to 43oC and they will explode at a temperature of about 100oC! Ordinary laboratory thermometers are used.
How can you measure a body temperature?
What kind of thermometer you use to measure the body temperature
Can a clinical thermometer be used to measure the temperature of boiling milk?
No, a clinical thermometer is not designed to handle high temperatures like those of boiling milk. It may break or provide inaccurate readings. It is better to use a kitchen thermometer that is designed for higher temperature measurements.
Why can you not use a clinical thermometer to measure the temperature of a candle flame?
We cannot use a clinical thermometer to measure temperature of a candle flame because then the mercury will expand too much and the thermometer will explode.
Can you use a clinical thermometer to measure the temperature of a candle flame?
No, a clinical thermometer is not suitable for measuring the temperature of a candle flame. Candle flames burn at temperatures much higher than the range typically measured by a clinical thermometer. To measure the temperature of a candle flame, a specialized high-temperature thermometer or pyrometer would be more appropriate.
Does clinical thermometer measures temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit?
clinical thermometers measure temperature in Celsius.
Can a clinical thermometer measure the temperature of coffee tea?
yes. it's a thermometer.
Can you measure temperature of hot tea with a clinical thermometer?
no. as the clinical thermometr will burst
Can you measure the temperature of a hot tea with a clinical thermometer?
No, the temperature of hot tea is substantially higher than the maximum that a clinical thermometer is designed for.
Can a thermometer record the temperature of boiling pot?
Yes, a thermometer can record the temperature of a boiling pot. By placing the thermometer in the liquid or steam coming from the pot, it can measure the temperature accurately. Be sure to use a thermometer that is designed to measure high temperatures.
What happens when you put a clinical thermometer into boiling water?
A clinical thermometer is designed to measure body temperature accurately, not high-temperature environments like boiling water. Putting a clinical thermometer into boiling water can damage the thermometer, resulting in inaccurate readings and potentially posing a safety risk. It's best to use thermometers specifically designed for measuring high temperatures in such situations.
