do you have to tap a barometer daily to get correct reading
One traditionally taps a barometer before taking the pressure reading and weather forecast.
A barometer reading would change with a cold front because the density of mercury will change with temperature, so a reading must be adjusted for the temperature of the instrument. For this purpose a mercury thermometer is usually mounted on the instrument. Temperature compensation of an aneroid barometer is accomplished by including a bi-metal element in the mechanical linkages. Aneroid barometers sold for domestic use typically have no compensation.
When you have the same weather (high or low pressure region) then 1000 ft higher on top of a hill you will have lower barameter reading. On the hill there is not so much air over you. That's why there must be less pressure on you and on the barometer.
With the help of an instrument called barometer, you can tell approximately the height of a mountain, but you must climb to the top of the mountain to use such instrument. The higher is the mountain, there is less on the top of it, so the air pressure is fewer over there.
using your mouth,hand and by using that you must learn how to use it by reading the babala
If a rider is attached to a bill it must be introduced before first reading.
there must be vacuum in the mercury barometer because if air enters the tube the barmeter would become faulty as air pressure will change.
A barometer is used for measuring atmospheric pressure. The barometer sealed on the top with an open bottom in order to allow air pressure to push down.
Because it has a high density... meaning that the volume increase or decrease due to altitude change is can be viewed in a practical sized barometer. If water, which had a much lower density, was used instead of Mercury, the barometer must be at least 15m high.
You can easily change the pitch of an instrument by the embouchure you are making with the instrument or perhaps even make an adjustment on your instrument. If it is flat, you must pull out your instrument, if it is sharp, you must pull it in.
The height of the mercury column is used to measure atmospheric pressure. If the barometer is also subjected to high temperatures, the thermal expansion of the mercury column will indicate a higher pressure than is really the case. This will make the barometer readings useless.
