How did people measure the temperature in 1960?
They had thermometers that were a glass tube with mercury sealed inside. There were temperature markings on the outside of the tube that when the mercury reached that point it showed what the temperature was.
When you measure an object's temperature you measure the?

Why a clinical thermometer breaks when it is used to measure the temperature of boiling water?

What are the disadvantages of using a water-in-glass thermometer to measure outside air temperature?
Well it won't work below freezing.
When you measure the temperature of an object you measure the?
Temperature xD
Does temperature have atoms and molecules?
Temperature itself is not a substance and is not composed of atoms or molecules. However it is a measure of the activity of the atoms or molecules of the substance you are measuring the temperature of. That is, the warmer a substance becomes the more active are its atoms and the higher its temperature.
What are 2 units that scientist use to measure temperature?
To measure temperature, scientists use:KelvinCelsiusFahrenheit.
Do scientists typically measure temperature using the Fahrenheit scale?
