What is a height gauge called?
Altimeter
What is a antonym for altimeter?
An antonym for altimeter would be "depth gauge." An altimeter measures altitude or height above a fixed level, while a depth gauge measures depth below a surface or level. Both instruments serve opposite purposes in measuring vertical distance.
Do the aneroid wafers in an altimeter move when you adjust the altimeter setting?
No, that wafers do not move independent of the hole part. When pressure is adjusted, the whole base of the altimeter, including wafers, turn. Thus it changes the setting of the altitude. While the whole base is turning, the barometric pressure dial turns accordingly to show the correct pressure reading you are adjusting it to.
What is Altitude gauge?
An altitude gauge is an instrument that measures the vertical distance above a reference point, usually in relation to sea level. It is commonly used in aircraft to provide pilots with information about the altitude of the aircraft in flight.
What is the difference between altimeter and cabin altimeter?
The main difference between altimeter and cabin altimeter is the place where they take their pressure: Altimeter takes the pressure from static ports, while cabin altimeter takes it's pressure from the cabin.
Should fuel level gauge go to e when you turn the key off on a 1992 dodge Dakota?
Yes. The fuel gauge in most vehicles will settle at 'empty' with the ignition off.
How do you know that your altimeter is accurate?
Using a metric barometer, you should put a magnet in between the two, and the altitude on the altimeter should immediatley go to zero. if it is not at zero, but a negative or positive, you know it is off by that number. Example: -7 ft. ----- This means your altimeter is 7 feet below the accurate number.
What is measured by an altimeter?
An altimeter does not actually measure altitude directly, but rather just atmospheric pressure. So an altimeter is actually a barometer created for a specific purpose. See related link The altimeter measures the height above the ground and has a pointer which is adjustable depending in which air field you are taking off on. it measures the pressure of the air as you get higher off the ground the pressure reduces therefore it is able to determine your height above ground.
When Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter indicates?
true altitude at field elevation.
A sentence for altimeter?
My handheld GPS instrument has a barometric altimeter in it also.
What are example sentences for altimeter?
My GPS instrument contains a barometric altimeter.
What is the white smoke that comes out of your ac when you turn it off it goes away if you turn the temp gauge to heat but still leave it off?
Your a/c system may be freezing up and you need to have the system checked.........
