A computer inside a digital thermometer measures the conductivity of the thermistor, which is a heat-sensitive electric conductor. The higher the temperature, the more conductive the thermistor is, and that reading is calculated and displayed by the computer.
A thermometer is used to measure temperature. There are various types of thermometers such as digital thermometers, mercury thermometers, infrared thermometers, and thermocouples.
They're thermometers..... So.... They do the exact same things as normal thermometers, except the temperature comes out on a small, digital screen. -.-
The three main types of thermometers are liquid-in-glass thermometers, digital thermometers, and infrared thermometers. Liquid-in-glass thermometers use a liquid like mercury or alcohol to measure temperature, digital thermometers provide a numeric temperature reading, and infrared thermometers measure temperature from a distance using infrared technology.
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of a body. There are various types of thermometers, such as digital thermometers, infrared thermometers, and mercury thermometers.
Alcohol thermometers use a liquid such as ethanol to measure temperature based on the expansion of the liquid, while digital thermometers use electronic sensors to detect temperature changes and provide a numerical reading. Digital thermometers tend to be more accurate and easier to read than alcohol thermometers.
A thermometer is used to measure air temperature. Several types of thermometers can be used, such as liquid-in-glass thermometers, digital thermometers, and infrared thermometers.
Thermometers are used to measure temperature. There are different types of thermometers, such as mercury, digital, infrared, and thermocouple thermometers, each with its own method of temperature measurement.
Digital thermometers have replaced mercury thermometers because mercury is toxic. [Personal commentary: digital thermometers are not accurate and mercury thermometers are so how many people are being harmed by not knowing their temperature versus how many would be harmed by the mercury if accurate thermometers were still used?]

Two common types of thermometers are digital thermometers and mercury thermometers. Digital thermometers use electronic sensors to measure temperature and display it on a screen, while mercury thermometers contain mercury that expands or contracts with temperature changes. Mercury thermometers are being phased out due to environmental concerns over mercury exposure.
Digital and clinical thermometers are not necessarily the same. Digital thermometers can encompass a wider range of types, including both clinical and non-clinical variations. Clinical thermometers, on the other hand, are specifically designed for medical use to measure body temperature accurately.
A thermometer is commonly used to measure room temperature. There are different types of thermometers, such as digital thermometers or mercury thermometers, that can be used to accurately measure the temperature of a room.
