Those thermometers use liquid crystals to measure temperature. More specifically, they use chiral nematic liquid crystals--long asymmetric molecules that arrange themselves in orderly spirals in the liquid. When light strikes these spiral structures, some of it reflects. But the reflection is strongest when the light's wavelength is an integer or half integer multiple of the spiral's pitch--the distance between adjacent turns of the spiral. Since light's wavelength is related to its color, the light reflected by these liquid crystals is colored. Because the pitch of a chiral nematic liquid crystal changes with temperature, so does its color. Slightly different liquid crystals are inserted behind each number on the thermometer so that each number becomes colored at a different temperature.

They really necessarily are not the same because air is a gas and obviously liquid is a liquid, and they have to be measured differently because you can tel a big difference in the two types of matter.
liquid thermometer measures the lowest temperature while air thermometer measures the lowest temperature of the day. liquid uses liquid and air uses air.
A liquid thermometer measures lowest temperature while air thermometer measures lowest temperature of the day!!
Hope this helps
even this may not be right but it was worth a try.!!!!!
They are both have diffrnet skills like one measures air and one measures liquid
they are the same
The best is a thermometer, another way to get the temperature outside is to pour water in a bowl, leave it out there for a couple of minutes and then take a thermometer and put it in the water.
As with any other substance, without any outside influence, it will take on the ambient temperature.
Mostly, just a ruler and a white snow board for the snow to fall on in an unobstructed area. There are automated methods, such as snow pillows that sense the weight of the snow, and even ultrasound, but a ruler is still the most reliable method when humans are available to do it.Usually it's a ruler
I am going to assume your talking about Fahrenheit. Which would take 32 degrees Fahrenheit for ice to begin to melt (albeit slowly). If you come from a place that uses Celsius its understandable to be confused by this at it will seem illogical as Celsius is a simpler and a more logical way to measure temperature.
The simple measure that I can take to reduce the environmental impact of a computer is switching it off when it is not in use.
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.
At first they will use the twine to measure the curved lines and then they will take one scale and looke the measure
The use of a thermometer is to measure hot and cold in Fahrenheit and in Celsius. To measure body temperature, air temperature, atmosphere temperature. It is a scientific instrument to record temperature. It's used to measure temperature of various things. For examples- the human body , weather, liquids etc The word "thermometer" literally means to "measure heat". As such, variations of the device are used to measure the heat of numerous items, including, but not limited to, the body heat of a human or animal, or to ensure proper cooking temperatures, or to trigger a device, such as via an automobile radiator's thermostat, or even to measure the temperature of distant stars.

To take temperature of our body
the thermometer is an object that we going to measure of an temperature of one person.
The simplest method is to use a thermometer.
The proper way to take the temperature of vacuum packed foods is with a metal stem thermometer. To take the correct temperature, put the thermometer in the center of the food.
Measure equal amounts of water and ethanol in separate containers. Take temperature of both. Add ethanol to water and take temperature.
Not necessarily. I I wanted to measure my son's body temperature, I would not take him 20 metres up!
to measure the temperature of a person or animals (living things) to see if their temperature is too high than the average temp.
As soon as your symptoms have officially cleared up (see doctor)
As well known, thermometer is an instrument used to measure temperature. Thermo is referred to heat and -Meter is referred to the measuring instrument. The laboratory thermometer is normally mercury based as it expands at a steady rate and has a higher density than water's. This allow it take a small height to expand compare to water which is 13.6x more than the height of mercury when it expands as their density are 13600kgm/s for mercury and 1000kgm/s for water. Furthermore, the mercury used is not poisonous and therefore is safe to be used by students at school. Laboratory thermometer is used to measure low temperature which is between -10 degree Celsius to 120 degree Celsius. This is because in school laboratory, the experiments we conduct just within a small range of temperature around the room temperature., which is about 27-29 degree Celsius.
A thermometer is not kept in direct sunlight because the temperature needed to be recorded by the thermometer is of the air and not the rays of the sun.
