Does a thermometer's mercurry expand contract on condenses?
it expands and contracts when the temperature drops, the mercury contracts...when the temperature increases, the mercury expands
What increases as temperature of a solid object rises?
The object expands
What increases as the temperature of solid object rises?
The object expands
Is Eiffel Tower always the same height?
no ,Because when the temperature increases the metal expands and when the temperature is low the metal contracts
When the glass of a buret expands due to an increase in temperature does the diameter of the bore increase or decrease?
When the glass of a buret expands due to an increase in temperature, the diameter of the bore actually increases. This is because the material expands uniformly in all directions, including the internal diameter of the bore. Consequently, as the glass expands, the volume capacity of the buret increases, allowing for more liquid to be held.
What happens to a volume of a gas when temperature is decreased?
Temperature and volume vary directly, so if temperature decreases, so does volume. Volume decreases because the measure of the average kinetic energy of the gas particles (temperature) is decreasing also. When that happens, a gas cannot expand, and will decrease.
What happen to the mercury in a thermometer when the temperature increase?
When the temperature increases, the mercury in a thermometer expands and rises up the column because the volume of the liquid increases with temperature. This expansion is linear and is used to indicate the rise in temperature on the thermometer scale.
How does law of expansion and contraction work in thermometers?
The material in the thermometer expands and contracts as temperature increases or reduces.
What happens to the density of air as it's temperature increases?
Becomes lighter and rises, the principle of hot air balloons.
What physical changes occur to thermal conductivity?
because atoms expands when temperature increases in result physical changes.
What happen to the thermometer reading when the temperature increase?
When the temperature increases, the mercury inside the thermometer expands due to thermal expansion, causing the level of mercury to rise in the thermometer tube. This results in a higher reading on the scale of the thermometer, indicating a higher temperature.
How does a thermometer use the thermal expansion of a material to measure temperature?
A thermometer uses a liquid, such as mercury or alcohol, that expands and contracts with temperature changes. As the temperature increases, the liquid expands, causing it to rise up a calibrated tube. The level of the liquid in the tube corresponds to the temperature reading indicated on the scale.
