To measure true air temperature, not an elevated temperature from direct solar heating.
All devices for measuring temperature are called thermometers. This includes those which use mercury and measure the temperature of the air.
Temperature.
If you ever want to measure a temperature above 212 degrees, you're better off hanging the thermometer into the air in the oven. Since it's a hot-air oven, you want to measure the air. If it were a hot-water oven, you might prefer to measure water. But even then, what are you gonna do above 212, when the water goes away and all you have in there is steam ??
This measure is the temperature.
a measure of molecular motion
In the United States, the Fahrenheit scale is commonly used to measure air temperature.
The temperature of the air in the shade. The temperature of the air is a measure of the degree of molecular movement of all the Nitrogen and Oxygen molecules that largely make up air.
A thermometer is used to measure air temperature, or the temperature within a solid or liquid.
To measure true air temperature, not an elevated temperature from direct solar heating.
thermoneter
a barometer is used to measure the air pressure, not a thermometer! A thermometer is used to measure the temperature.
You asked the question wrong. The analogy was : Thermometer is to Temperature as Barometer is to Air Pressure.A meteorologist uses his Barometer to measure pressure in millibars, very small changes in the atmosphere's pressure. He uses the Thermometer to measure the air Temperature.
Yes, of course !
No. It measurers air pressure
A thermometer. Temperture is the measure of the kinetic energy, Aka speed, of molecules.
A thermometer used to measure air temperature uses a glass tube filled with a liquid either alcohol or mercury. When the temperature increases the particles of liquid expand, filling the glass tub. Thermometers that are used to measure you body temperature uses infrared sensors.
