What tells you how high a plane is flying?
An altimeter (altitude meter) tells the pilots how high the aircraft is flying. There are 2 types of altimeters commonly used in aircraft: pressure altimeters and radar altimeters.
Is altimeters a genetic disorder?
An altimeter is an instrument to measure the altitude.
Why are mercury barometers no particle for use in altimeters?
Mercury barometers are not suitable for use in altimeters because the boiling point of mercury is relatively low, which can limit their accuracy in high-altitude applications where temperatures may drop significantly. In addition, mercury is a toxic substance, posing health and environmental risks if the barometer were to break at higher altitudes. Other alternatives like aneroid or electronic barometers are commonly used in altimeters instead.
Do hot air balloons use instrumentation?
yes they use altimeters and gps's
How do you use the word Calibrated in a sentence?
The altimeters have to be proper calibrated to provide the correct data.
What does altimeter mean?
Altimeter indicates altitude of air craft from ground. they are known as radio altimeters.
Were there parachuters at Pearl Harbor?
Pearl Harbour was and still is an American Naval Base. There were no parachute forces or regiments on the base or islands, when the Japanese attacked during what was supposed to be peacetime.
How many altimeters in 500 yards?
An altimeter is not a unit of distance - it is a device for measuring distances above ground.
What is the use of digital and analog skydiving altimeters?
It used to be almost every DZ started their students on an analog altimeter. It’s got a dial like a watch face with a needle that rotates to show how high you are. These are less expensive than digital altimeters, but they’re less accurate. It’s pretty hard to glance at your altimeter and see if you’re 300 feet up or 450 feet up.

How does a altimeter look like?
An altimeter typically resembles a round dial similar to a traditional clock, featuring a needle that indicates altitude against a graduated scale, often measured in feet or meters. Many altimeters also have digital displays that provide real-time altitude readings. Some models include additional features like barometric pressure indicators and settings for calibration. In aviation, altimeters can be found in cockpit instruments, while hiking or climbing altimeters may be compact and portable.
What is the difference between a radar altimeter and a barometric altimeter?
Radar altimeter gets altitude information by bouncing a radio wave off the surface of the Earth and determines the aircrafts altitude by measuring the length of time it takes for the signal to return. Barometric altimeters get altitude information by measuring the barometric air pressure outside the aircraft. Barometric pressure decreases as altitude increases. Radar altimeters will give altitude above ground level while barometric altimeters give altitude above sea level.
Is there a bff necklace at Chuck E. Cheese's?
I'm sure there's at least one Chuck E. Cheese's in the world that has one as a prize, but most only have candy, bouncy balls, and alien parachuters.
