Does a water meter only measure the time that the water is flowing past it assuming that the water is always flowing at a constant pressure?

No. Most water meters are of the positive displacement type. They meter actual volume, and are pressure independent. Also note that water flow and pressure are not the same thing. You can have high flow with low pressure, and also low flow with high pressure, depending on the size of the pipe and/or openings (such as valves) and the pressure.

Can volume be measure if the temperature of the gas is at constant pressure?
yes
How is electrical pressure measured?
The unit for electrical 'pressure' is the volt. It is measured with a voltmeter.
What do you need to use to measure the pascal?
it depends on what your dealing with, room pressure is found with a barometer, to measure pressure in a flowing fluid, you can use a manometer. there are many variou ways to find pressure, but you must be specific on the circumstances
What is Indicated mean effective pressure and how to measure it?
its the amount of constant pressure produce in cylinders pistons which make work equal to actual cycle work
How do isobars measure air pressure?
Isobars are not measured. An isobar describes a part of a thermodynamic process during which the pressure doesn't change. It is also used as a term in graph tables where it describes the behavior of a material at a constant pressure.
How do you figure the energy lost in watts from the heat coming off of an uninsulated non-electrical warming cabinet that's kept at a given constant internal temp?
That depends on what basis you want to calculate it - in other words, what information is provided. You could try to measure the heat that goes out. Or, if you use a heating element that uses a certain power (in watts), then - assuming, as you did, that the internal temperature remains constant - the heat flowing out is equal to the power used by the heating element.
What are the 3 qualities you can use to measure of a gas?
I suppose your looking for Pressure, Volume and Temperature, all related in the equation P∙ V ÷ T is constant.
Why do you need a referance point to know if an object is moving?
A reference point is part of the definition of movement or displacement. The difference, over time, of your distance or orientation to a given reference point or points defines movement.
What instruments are used to measure the atmospheric pressure?
Usually the instrument used is called a barometer- which could be a closed end manometer or an aneroid barometer.An altimeter actually also measures atmospheric pressures - but for a different purpose.
What is the Experiment used to measure pressure in a flowing fluid?
I believe it is experiment on Bernoulli's principle that use conservation of energy to calculate velocity or flow of the incompressible fluid. It is stated Total Pressure = static Pressure at reference height + momentum + potential height See attachment for experiment detail.
What is A measure of the number of electrons flowing through a circuit?
Amperage.
What do ammeters do?
Ammeters measure the current flowing through a circuit
