It doesn't, it measures atmospheric pressure. Humidity is measured with a hygrometer.
* Some long case mercurial barometers, used in the home, may have a separate hygrometer included on the instrument.
It doesnt. A barometer measures the pressure in the atmosphere. This is what effects precipitation and humidity. Dont think of it like a thermometer, it works the other way round. Low pressure mains rain is on its way. High pressure means its not. This is why they talk about pressure on weather forecasts.
No. A barometer measures air pressure. However, often a humidity indicator is also built into the cabinet or case that displays the barometer. Thus both measurement instruments are seen together, but the case or unit comprising both instruments is still usually called a barometer.
barometer A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, not humidity. A hygrometer measures humidity.
Usually the instrument used is called a barometer- which could be a closed end manometer or an aneroid barometer.An altimeter actually also measures atmospheric pressures - but for a different purpose.
Barometer (barometric pressure) Thermometer (temp) & rain guage (amt of rainfall in inches)
Air pressure is measured with a barometer.
Weather balloons typically carry a thermometer (to measure air temperature), a psychrometer (to measure humidity), a barometer (to measure air pressure) and a transmitter (to send the information through radio waves to equipment at the ground so we will know what the instruments are measuring up in the air)
2 instruments are required to accomplish these measurements:a barometer to measure atmospheric pressure.a hygrometer to measure humidity.
No
No , a Barometer measures air pressure.
precipitation and humidity
barometer A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, not humidity. A hygrometer measures humidity.
a barometer so just do not feel bad the only reason i know that was cause i had to use a barometer in the 5th grade so.add. BUT if you wanted to measure Humidity then you would use a hygrometer or a dew point meter.
hygrometers- measure humidity barometers-measure air pressure wind socks-measure wind direction and speed anemometers-wind speed just got them right on apex
barometer is used to measure air pressure
A barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. A circle does not have a barometer!
A barometer measures wind speed
No, a barometer measures pressure.
