What does the thermometer measure in the atmosphere?
It measures energy.
Does a barometer measures air?
It measures air pressure not air.
Atmospheric pressure is caused by what?
force = pressure x area , so pressure is force divided by area, air molecules stack up on top of each other and the force of them (caused by gravity and their mass ) weighs down with a pressure of 14.7 lbs/sq inch or 1 bar. As you go higher the stack is lower so the pressure drops until you get to space and it measures a vacuum.
Why is the atmospheric pressure on moon is zero?
Because the atmosphere on the moon is negligible. No atmosphere = No atmospheric pressure
What weather instrument measures moisture in the atmosphere?
A hygrometer
What measures isobars?
Isobars measure the air pressure in the sky and our atmosphere! I hope I helped a little!
What does a barrow meter measure?
I think you could be referring to a barometer, which measures atmospheric pressure and is an indicator of when it will rain or shine.
Which property of the atmosphere does a barometer measure?
A barometer measures barometric pressure. Which is also known as Atmospheric Pressure. That's the pressure in the atmosphere that pushes down on you. When atmospheric pressure falls it can be a sign of potential t-storms and/or rain. Whereas when it rises it can be a sign of potentially fair weather.
Gauge pressure and absolute pressure?
Gauge pressure is what you get when you take the reading from your tire pressure gauge. Absolute pressure is the pressure inside your tires plus the atmospheric pressure, which is roughly; 14.7 psi, 101.3 kPa (kilo-Pascals), or one atmosphere. Absolute pressure measures all of the pressure on your tires, inside and out, whereas gauge simply measures the pressure inside the tire.
Aneroid barometer measures air pressure with?
barameter measures air pressure barameter measures air pressure
What is the different between barometer and thermometer?
A barometer measures the barometric pressure of the atmosphere. This has to do with the relative humidity. The more moisture suspended in the air, the more it weighs. A weather thermometer measures the temperature of the air.
What is used to measures pressure?
Newtons ------------------------------------------------------- The unit of pressure in the SI is pascal (Pa). Pascal is defined as N/m2; 1 technical atmosphere(at) is 9,80655.10e4 pascals.
What is barometric pressure measured by?
A barometer measures atmospheric pressure to determine weather or altitude changes.
What measures the atmosphere?
The atmosphere has numerous measurable properties, including pressure, temperature, humidity, velocity. Each of these is measured by a different instrument. Pressure is measured by a barometer, temperature is measured by a thermometer, etc.That would be a barometer. I assume you are referring to atmospheric pressure.
What weather instrument measures air pressure?
A barometer measures air pressure.
What measures wind pressure?
Barometer measures atmospheric pressure Anemometer measures wind speed
What does an barometer measures?
It measures air pressure.
