How does temperature differ from a thermal change?
Temperatures, as provided by thermometers, measure and quantify the extent of thermal changes.
What is the difference between digital and mercury thermometer?
Digital thermometers measure electrical resistance and Mercury thermometers measure thermal expansion.
What are mercury thermometers used to measure?
Thermometers of any kind measure one thing: temperature.
Do thermometers measure in Celsius?
Some do.
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 does temperature differ from a thermal change?
Temperatures, as provided by thermometers, measure and quantify the extent of thermal changes.
What do thermometers to do today?
The same as they've always done, they measure temperatures.
Is thermometer a term of measurement?
Thermometers are an instrument used to measure temperatures.
How do you measure cooled temperature?
Cooled temperatures are still temperatures!. You can measure them using expansion thermometers down to around -15 deg Celsius. Below that you will probably need a thermocouple.
Can use medical electronic thermometer to measure air temperature?
Most medical electronic thermometers are not calibrated to measure ambient temperatures.
Why are ethanol thermometers better than mercury ones?
I don't know about better, but they can measure lower temperatures.
What is the basic principles of temperature measurement?
temperature is a measure of effect of heat energy. It tells us about the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. Increase in volume, change in specific resistance, emmision of electro magnetic waves (like Light) are the general effects of the temperature. Based on these principles temperatures are measured. Change in volume --- Liquid thermometers -- Mercury thermometers Change in resistance --- Resistance thermometers ---- digital thermometers Emmission of E/M waves --- Radiation thermometers --- Pyrometers RAMKI--India
Why are Different types of thermometers used to measure more extreme temperature?
For example pyrometers for very high temperatures.
How is temperature measured in Antarctica?
Thermometers are very effective in measuring temperatures, in both C and F degrees.
How would you measure the U-value of a room?
Keep thermometers inside& outside of rooms &meassure temperatures &note the difference
What are alcohol thermometers used for?
Alcohol thermometres are used to measure very low temperatures (upto -112 degree celsius).
How would a thermometer has measure temperatures using the kelvin scale differ from one that measure temperatures using the celsius scale?
The degrees are the same size on both thermometers. But when the two thermometers are side by side and at the same temperature, the number of the reading on the Celsius thermometer is 273.15 higher than the number of the reading on the Kelvin thermometer.
