When did Galileo make the thermometer?
Galileo made the thermometer in 1593.
Why are the numbers where they are on a thermometer?
The numbers are where they are because the person who made the thermometer scale decided which numbers go where.
What is the raw experimental measurement made when using mercury thermometer?
Using a thermometer we can measure the temperature.
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.

Was the thermometer invented on purpose or by accident?
no it was not made by accident. it was made by daniel gabriel fahrenheit. he wanted to make something to measure how hot or cold it is in a specific area. that is how the thermometer was invented.
What material is the tip of a oral digital thermometer made of?

What is the year the thermometer was made by Galileo?
Galileo Galilei did not invent the thermometer. The first modern thermometer, using mercury in a glass tube, was invented by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in the early 18th century, around 1714.
Who was the first person to make the thermometer in 1593?
The first person credited with inventing the thermometer in 1593 was Galileo Galilei, an Italian scientist and astronomer. He developed a device called the thermoscope, which later evolved into the modern thermometer.
