it depends on the type of thermometer. if it is an animal thermometer, then i think it goes in the animals anus all the way. if it is a human thermometer, then it only goes to where the tongue meets the mouth.

What is total immersion thermometer?

A total immersion thermometer is a type of thermometer designed to be fully submerged in a liquid to ensure an accurate temperature reading. It typically has a long stem that allows the temperature-sensitive part of the thermometer to be fully immersed in the liquid being measured. Total immersion thermometers are commonly used in laboratory settings and for measuring the temperature of fluids.


What is immersion thermometer?

A total immersion thermometer is one that has been calibrated to read correctly when the entire thermometer is submerged in a homogeneously temperated liquid/medium.

What are immersion thermometer?

An immersion thermometer is a type of thermometer designed to be submerged in a liquid or a semi-solid substance to measure its temperature accurately. It typically consists of a sensing element enclosed in a glass or metal tube with a scale for reading the temperature. Immersion thermometers are commonly used in laboratories, industrial processes, and food preparation.

To get an accurate measurement on a thermometer what do you do?

- Read the temperature over the meniscus (for mercury thermometers)- Avoid the parallaxe error- Respect the depth of immersion thermometer- Don't use thermometers with defects (ex. air bubbles)- Wait a reasonable time the setting of indication for the thermometer


What is the red line on a thermometer?

The red line on a thermometer typically indicates the level to which the mercury or other liquid inside the thermometer should rise when measuring temperature. This line is often used as a reference point to ensure accurate readings. When the temperature rises, the liquid expands and moves up the tube, reaching the red line to indicate the current temperature.


Why do you rotate the stem of the clinical thermometer when you read the thermometer?

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.

Boiling water temperature in digital thermometer?

Boiling water temperature is typically recorded at 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit on a digital thermometer at standard atmospheric pressure. It's important to ensure accurate calibration and proper immersion of the thermometer in the water for an accurate reading.
