The advantage is the thermometer records a daily maximum and minimum temperature for reference. The disadvantage is the thermometer must be reset each day.

Different types of thermometers and their uses with pictures?
There are several types of thermometers. Clinical thermometers are used to measure the body temperature of the patient. Ear Thermometers make it an accurate point to measure the body temperature. Pacifier thermometers are used to check the body temperature of babies or infants. Underarm thermometers are kept in the underarms to measure the body temperature. Not to mention the food thermometers that are often used for checking the heat of the oil or pop up to let you know when the meat is done.
What are alternatives to thermometers?
There are no convenient alternatives to using a thermometer to measure body temperature.
What liquid used to be in most thermometers?
Most thermometers used to contain mercury until it was found to be toxic.
How do you accurately measure the temperature of a substance?
We ca use thermometers, thermocouples, resistance thermometers, pyrometers etc.
What liquid element is used in thermometers.?
Mercury (Atomic number 80) is still used in some thermometers.
What principle do most thermometers work?
Liquid expands as it gets warmer.
What does the principle of the wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometers state?
Evaporation causes cooling.
What is the principle of Mercury?
Mercury thermometers are based on the fact that materials (in this case, the liquid mercury) expand when heated.Mercury thermometers are based on the fact that materials (in this case, the liquid mercury) expand when heated.Mercury thermometers are based on the fact that materials (in this case, the liquid mercury) expand when heated.Mercury thermometers are based on the fact that materials (in this case, the liquid mercury) expand when heated.
How do thermometers works?
For a basic design of thermometers would base on the principle of thermal expansion, either using air in syringe expand and contract with temperature to indicate the scale or using liquid filled into capillary and mark the scale according to a standard thermometer.
How do handmade thermometers work?
For a basic design of thermometers would base on the principle of thermal expansion, either using air in syringe expand and contract with temperature to indicate the scale or using liquid filled into capillary and mark the scale according to a standard thermometer.
What different kinds of thermometers are there?
There are 34 different types of thermometer that range from alcohol thermometers and ear thermometers to medical thermometers and electrical resistance thermometers.
What where the first thermometers?
Mecury thermometers
What are 3 main different types of thermometers?
The three main types of thermometers are liquid-in-glass thermometers, digital thermometers, and infrared thermometers. Liquid-in-glass thermometers use a liquid like mercury or alcohol to measure temperature, digital thermometers provide a numeric temperature reading, and infrared thermometers measure temperature from a distance using infrared technology.
Is mercury present in all types thermometers?
No, mercury is not present in all types of thermometers. While mercury thermometers are common, other types such as digital thermometers and infrared thermometers do not contain mercury. Mercury thermometers are being phased out due to environmental concerns.
What instrument it used to measure temperature?
A thermometer is used to measure temperature. There are various types of thermometers such as digital thermometers, mercury thermometers, infrared thermometers, and thermocouples.
What instrument is used to measure temperature of a body?
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of a body. There are various types of thermometers, such as digital thermometers, infrared thermometers, and mercury thermometers.
Different types of thermometers?
