What is the quantity measured by thermometer?
A thermometer measures temperature, which is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
What is the instrument that is used to measure the temperature called?
A thermometer
What liquid is typically used in a Galilean thermometer?
The liquid typically used in a Galilean thermometer is colored alcohol.
What is a constant volume gas thermometer?
A constant volume gas thermometer is a thermometer that uses the variations of pressure in gas at different temperatures to measure the temperature. A liquid can then be put into tubes, and rather than measuring the distance of a small quantity, the distance between two parts of the curving tube are used to 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.

What equipment would be used to measure and heat water?
A water thermometer can be used to measure the temperature of water. To heat water, a stove, kettle, or microwave can be used depending on the quantity and purpose of heating.
What is instrument for measuring a quantity of something?
An instrument used for measuring a quantity of something is called a measuring device or a measuring instrument. Examples include a scale for measuring weight, a ruler for measuring length, or a thermometer for measuring temperature.
A device used to display the temperature?

What is the thermometer used for?

What is a constant-volume gas thermometer?
A constant volume gas thermometer is a thermometer that uses the variations of pressure in gas at different temperatures to measure the temperature. A liquid can then be put into tubes, and rather than measuring the distance of a small quantity, the distance between two parts of the curving tube are used to measure the temperature.

What measures how cold or hot something is?
Temperature measures how hot or cold something is. It is a physical quantity that expresses the degree of hotness or coldness of a substance. It is typically measured using a thermometer in units such as degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
