What is a probe thermometer?
this is a thermometer that can work twice as much as a normal thermometer or a thermometer that can check the temperature of two things at the same time
How does a LOVE thermometer work?
by heat
How do you tell how hot or cold something is?
use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.
Why is it More difficult to measure the temperature of a solid than a liquid?
You can insert a thermometer directly into a liquid, but not into a solid. You can fairly easily measure the surface temperature of a solid object, but that does not necessarily reflect the temperature inside.
Can you ues a non contact infrared IR thermometer work on a grill?
You cannot use a non contact infrared IR thermometer on a grill.
How a thermometer is used?
A thermometer is used to measure air temperature, or the temperature within a solid or liquid.

What is a dual probe thermometer?

How does an aquarium thermometer work?
It depends on what kind you have.
Will a thermometer work in the horziontal position?
Yes, it will.
How does a thermometor work?
i don't know how a thermometer works
How a laboratory thermometer work?
It works when the thermometer gains heat from the surroundings. When the thermometer gains heat from the surroundings, gradually Mercury expands and it points the accurate measurement of temperature.
Scientists use something called a to measure when that liquid turns into a solid?
a hypobalimic acid container
