You asked the question wrong. The analogy was : Thermometer is to Temperature as Barometer is to Air Pressure.
A meteorologist uses his Barometer to measure pressure in millibars, very small changes in the atmosphere's pressure. He uses the Thermometer to measure the air Temperature.
What else can I help you with?
Is a barometer used to measure temperature?
No, a barometer is used to measure air pressure, not temperature. Temperature is usually measured using a thermometer.
Explain how a barometer and a thermometer are alike?
A thermometer and a barometer are alike, because a thermometer tells temperature, and a barometer tells air pressure. They sort off connect, because when you have lower air pressure, you get colder temperatures and when you have higher air pressure, you know then that the temperature will be hotter. You can kinda tell by looking at only one piece of data, what the other piece might be. I'm pretty sure that's right, I'm only in 7th grade.
What instrument measures hot or cold air?
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of air, indicating whether it is hot or cold. Temperature readings are typically displayed in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
How do you test the temperature of the air?
You can test the temperature of the air using a thermometer designed for measuring air temperature. Simply place the thermometer in the area where you want to measure the temperature and read the display. Be sure to avoid blocking the airflow around the thermometer for an accurate reading.
Which instrument does not belong and why. Anemometer barometer thermometer seismometer?
The seismometer is the 'odd one out'. The other instruments measure factors to do with weather (wind speed, air pressure & temperature) - the seismometer measures movements in the Earth's crust.
Does a thermometer tell you air pressure?
No a barometer does a thermometer measures temperature
How is a thermometer able to measure air?
a barometer is used to measure the air pressure, not a thermometer! A thermometer is used to measure the temperature.
A thermometer is to air temperature as a blank is to air pressure?
barometer
A student is studying how the air pressure in a basketball depends on its temperature what measuring instruments are needed for this experiment?
To study how air pressure in a basketball changes with temperature, you will need a pressure gauge to measure the air pressure inside the basketball accurately. Additionally, you will require a thermometer to monitor the temperature of the basketball during the experiment.
Is a barometer used to measure temperature?
No, a barometer is used to measure air pressure, not temperature. Temperature is usually measured using a thermometer.
Why the mercury can not rise in a lab thermometer if there is air in glass tube?
Because the pressure of air may be greater than the pressure of the ascending Mercury.
What measures air pressure temperature humidity and wind?
a barometer measures air pressure. an anemometer measures wind speed. a thermometer measures temperature.
What is the different between barometer and thermometer?
A barometer measures the barometric pressure of the atmosphere. This has to do with the relative humidity. The more moisture suspended in the air, the more it weighs. A weather thermometer measures the temperature of the air.
Why the mercury can not rise in a lab thermometer if there is air in the glass tube?
Mercury does not rise in a lab thermometer if there is air in the glass tube because the presence of air creates pressure within the tube that opposes the expansion of the mercury. Without a vacuum, the air pressure prevents the mercury from moving freely up the tube in response to changes in temperature.
What would you use to measure the elevation above sea level on air temperature and air pressure?
elevation above sea level . . . barometer or GPS air temperature . . . thermometer air pressure . . . barometer
What is constant pressure gas thermometer?
the thermometer that works on constant pressure
What types of equipment would be used to measure the boiling point of a liquid?
You need two tools. To measure the air pressure you use a barometer and to measure the temperature at which the substance boils you use a thermometer. The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure.
