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.

Name some weather instrument and each meaning?

Anemometer: measures wind speed. Barometer: measures atmospheric pressure. Hygrometer: measures humidity. Thermometer: measures temperature.


Why is seismograph different from anemometer barometer thermometer?

A seismograph is designed specifically to detect and record seismic waves generated by earthquakes, measuring ground motion. In contrast, an anemometer measures wind speed, a barometer measures atmospheric pressure, and a thermometer measures temperature. Each instrument serves a distinct purpose in monitoring different physical phenomena, utilizing unique mechanisms and principles tailored to their specific functions.


How would you check the weather in Antarctica?

You can measure weather using a thermometer, a barometer and an anemometer or other tool of choice.


Which instrument does not belong in this group anemometer barometer thermometer and seismograph?

The instrument that does not belong in this group is the seismograph. An anemometer, barometer, and thermometer are all instruments used to measure weather-related phenomena such as wind speed, air pressure, and temperature, respectively. A seismograph, on the other hand, is used to measure and record seismic waves caused by earthquakes.


What equipment is used to measure weather in Antarctica?

Standard tools include anemometer, perhaps a snow/rain gauge, thermometer and barometer.


What are 5 different weather instruments with pictures?

Thermometer: Measures temperature. Anemometer: Measures wind speed and direction. Barometer: Measures air pressure. Hygrometer: Measures humidity levels. Rain gauge: Measures precipitation levels. (Pictures of these instruments can easily be found on the internet.)


What weather condition does each of these instruments measure barometer thermometer rain gauge anemometer psychrometer?

A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, helping to predict weather changes. A thermometer measures air temperature. A rain gauge collects and measures the amount of precipitation. An anemometer measures wind speed, while a psychrometer assesses humidity levels by comparing the temperatures of a wet and dry bulb thermometer.


Is radiation the instrument used to measure wind speed?

No, a barometer measures air pressure. Though wind is caused by variances in air pressure the direct measurement of wind is done by an anemometeryes
