What are three types of isolines?
Isobars - Measure atmospheric pressure Isotherms - Measure temperature Isoheights - Measure elevation
What does a barrow meter measure?
I think you could be referring to a barometer, which measures atmospheric pressure and is an indicator of when it will rain or shine.
Which unit is used to measure atmospheric pressure?
Newtons / square meter. This unit has the special name Pascal.
What gauge measures both vacuum and pressure?
Gauge pressure usually refers to the pressure difference between ambient, atmospheric pressure and the pressure in a vessel or line. A gauge pressure of zero would mean that the vessel or line was at atmospheric pressure. Normally the pressures of interest are ABOVE atmospheric so the gauge pressure is positive. Vacuum gauge pressure measures how far BELOW atmospheric pressure a vessel or line is. As such vacuum gauge pressure may be measured as a negative number - or for convenience it may be reported as a positive number with the caveat that it is "vacuum gauge pressure", meaning that the reported pressure is how far atmospheric pressure is above the pressure in the vessel or line.
Do all the liquids at their boiling points have same vapour pressure?
At the same atmospheric pressure, yes. That's kind of the definition of boiling point: when the vapor pressure is the same as the atmospheric pressure.
What instrument is used is normally used to measure atmospheric pressure?
A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can also measure altitude!
What instrument is normally use measure atmospheric pressure?
A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can also measure altitude!
What instrument is used to measure atmospheric?
A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can also measure altitude!
What do mercury barometer measure?
It measure the Atmospheric Pressure.
What does an atmospheric measure?
It is a measurement of pressure
What is the purpose of a barometers?
to measure atmospheric pressure
What dose a barometer measure?
Atmospheric pressure
What instruments are used to measure the atmospheric pressure?
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.
Uses of barometer?
A barometer is an instrument used to measure the atmospheric pressure. It does so by comparing the atmospheric pressure with a predefined standard pressure.
What instrument is used to measure atmospheres pressure?
A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can also measure altitude!
Used to measure atmospheric pressure?
it is called BAROMETER
What does a barometric measure?
A barometer measures atmospheric pressure
