Why do you think the glass measure cylinder of the rain gauge is inside an outer conntainer?

It's to prevent false readings by water droplets being swept into the container by wind. Only water that falls though the collecting funnel counts towards the final measurement.

The shape of a rain gauge is a?
A cylinder or a tube
What is a rain gauge?
a rain gauge is a device used to measure rainfall
What is the purpose of a compound gauge?
The compound gauge is an instrument to measure pressures, positive or negative.
Is a rain gauge used to measure air pressure?
No, A rain gauge is used to measure precipitation. However, a barometer is used to measure air pressure. Have you ever heard of CoCoRaHS? They use volunteers to measure precipitation across the nation. It's one of the related links.
What tool meausres precipitation?
you measure it with a barometer, or a rain gauge.
What is the function of cylinder gauge?
To measure bore taper
What is endshake?
Insert and note the thickest feeler gauge that will fit between the rear of the barrel and the front face of the cylinder. Next, insert a wedge between the cylinder and the recoil shield that will push the cylinder fully forward. Measure Measure the gap, take the gauge out and measure again; that is endshake.
Why the glass measuring cylinder of the rain gauge is inside an outer container?
pagal
What measures preciptation?
you can measure precipition by collecting the water in a bottle(beaker)1,oo. ml gratuaded cylinder.
How do you check for piston ring grove clearance?
Slide one of the compression rings down into the cylinder and measure the gap with a feeler gauge.
Why do you think the glass measuring cylinder of the rain gauge is inside an outer container?
Beacause it is an inner word so we can take it out and then we are done
What measures the force of compression?
To measure a force, depends on how the force is applied. For example if it is a piston rod actuated by a piston, you can measure the pressure inside the cylinder containing the piston, this may be filled with gas or liquid, and calculate the force from the area of the piston/cylinder. If it is a lever system, work out the mechanical advantage of the levers and multiply by the actuating force, probably obtained as above. You can also measure force directly using a strain gauge between the applying force and the object.
What does a standard screw pitch gauge measure?
what does a standard thread gauge measure
How do scientist measure precipitation?
they use rain gauge to measure rainfall.
The shape of a rain gauge is a?
A cylinder or a tube
How do you tell choke on Stevens model 94 20 gauge?
Measure it, or have a gunsmith measure it, with a choke gauge.
Why do you think the glass measuring cylinder of the rain gauge is inside and outer container?
It's housed in a second container - to prevent rain (or other liquids) adding to the sample without being measured.
