What is the principle used in constructing a liquid thermometer?
The principle is volumetric expansion of a fluid
How does a thermometer use thermal expansion?
By when u look at an ordinary thermometer and u will see it goes on a regular degree
What does the sensitivity of thermometer depends on?
The difference between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the liquid in the thermometer bulb and the material of the bulb.
What is an example of thermal expansion that you have observed in your daily life?
an example would be a thermometer. A thermometer because it has mercury in it. When you check a patients temperature with a thermometer ,the heat from the patients body will cause the expansion of the mercury and the mercury flows in the tube. It stops at a point and that point indicates the temperature in the patients body.
What are some of the uses of expansion and contraction?
according to my research the thing for expansion and contraction are hot air balloons and a thermometer, there is also more.
Why does the height of the liquid of a thermometer increaseswhen the temperature goes up?
Thermal expansion of the fluid inside the thermometer.
What is the principle used in constructing a liquid thermometer?
The principle is volumetric expansion of a fluid
How does law of expansion and contraction work in thermometers?
The material in the thermometer expands and contracts as temperature increases or reduces.
How does thermal expansion work in thermometer?
As the indicator liquid in a thermometer gains heat when a room warms up, it expands, rising up higher and indicating the new, higher temperature from the increasing heat in the room.
How does a thermometer work indoors and ontdoors?
Both work by using expansion and contraction of a liquid to measure temperature, I dont know what the actually scientific answer to this is, but hope it helped anyway !
What does a thermometer measure and how does it do it?
A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a variety of different principles. The word temperature comes from the Greek work thermo which is heat and meter to measure.
What is the mode of operation of mercury in glass thermometer?
"thermal expansion"
Which device is based on the expansion of matter as temperature increases?
Thermometer is based on the expansion of matter as temperature increases.
Do you agree that expansion and contraction only cause problems?
No, we use expansion and contraction to tell temperature(thermometer).
How does a thermometer use thermal expansion?

What does the sensitivity of thermometer depends on?
The difference between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the liquid in the thermometer bulb and the material of the bulb.
What is liquid rising in a thermometer as temperature increases is an example of?
Thermal expansion.
