Depends on the kind of thermometer you're talking about. If it's about your own temperature, modern digital ones will measure it through the ear. The old-fashioned ones through the armpit or more reliably, by putting it up the bum.
When measuring the outside temperature, the thing is to measure it in the shade and protect it also against influences by wind or rain.
the mercury should be at normal body temperature level before using it the thermometer should be cleaned after use with normal water the bulb of the thermometer should not be touched
A rectal thermometer is commonly used to measure the temperature of birds. It is important to follow proper procedures for avian temperature measurement to ensure accuracy and avoid injury to the bird.
A thermometer is the most common apparatus used to measure temperature. It typically contains a liquid such as mercury or alcohol that expands or contracts in response to temperature changes, allowing the user to read the temperature from a scale. More modern thermometers may use digital technology to provide temperature readings.
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of hot water.
No, it is not recommended to use a baby thermometer to test the temperature of water. Baby thermometers are specifically designed to measure human body temperature and may not provide accurate results for testing water temperature. It's best to use a thermometer specifically designed for measuring water temperature.
To use a rectal thermometer on a dog, lubricate the thermometer with petroleum jelly, gently insert it into the dog's rectum about 1-2 inches, and hold it in place for about 1-2 minutes until the temperature is recorded. Be sure to clean the thermometer before and after use.
The same way you use a non-science thermometer.
To use a rectal dog thermometer, first lubricate the tip with petroleum jelly. Gently insert the thermometer about 1-2 inches into the dog's rectum and hold it in place for about 1-2 minutes. Be sure to clean the thermometer before and after each use.
The proper way to take the temperature of vacuum packed foods is with a metal stem thermometer. To take the correct temperature, put the thermometer in the center of the food.
Yes, it is safe to use a digital thermometer on your dog to take its temperature. Make sure to use a pet-specific thermometer and follow proper instructions to avoid injury.
no
The easiest way is with a floating thermometer.
Yes, a laboratory thermometer can be used to measure body temperature. However, it may not be as convenient or accurate as a clinical thermometer that is specifically designed for measuring body temperature. It is important to ensure proper cleaning and sterilization of the laboratory thermometer before and after use on the body.
Yes, provided you use it in a grown-up way.
Yea, why wouldn't you? It's still a thermometer either way.
If it is an analog thermometer, the face of the thermometer is shaped in a way that magnifies the readout, but it has a very narrow angle of visibility. Once rotated to the proper angle, the once thin line becomes a thick, easy to read line.
