Similarities between a liquid thermometer and a lab thermometer?
they both messure tempatures
Is there any thermometer which changes its colour due to temperature change?
Yes,its called as "liquid crystal thermometer".
What is the similarity between steam and ice?
Ice and wax are different because ice is a melting liquid that turns into water.Wax is different from ice because when it melts it tuns into like a rubbery feeling substance while ice just melts into water.
The resistance of a liquid to flowing is what?
The resistance of a liquid to flowing is its viscosity.Viscosity is a property arising from friction between neighboring particles in a fluid that are moving at different velocities. In liquids, it could be considered the "thickness". For example, maple syrup has a higher viscosity than water.
What is liquid hydrogen made of?
Hydrogen. Just like liquid steam is made of water molecules - the same stuff but in a different form.
What liquid is found in a clinical thermometer?
The liquid in a clinical thermometer is often mercury. But there are thermometers that use a coloured alcohol.
Different types of thermometers?
Celsius and Fahrenheit Thermometers Clinical Thermometers Ear (Tympanic) thermometers Pacifier Thermometers Underarm or Oral Thermometers Food Thermometers Outdoor Thermometers Mechanism of Different Types of Thermometers Mercury and Alcohol Thermometers Digital Thermometers Alcohol thermometer Beckmann differential thermometer Bi-metal mechanical thermometer Electrical resistance thermometer Galileo thermometer Infrared thermometer Liquid Crystal Thermometer Medical thermometer (e.g. oral thermometer, rectal thermometer, basal thermometer) Mercury-in-glass thermometer
Is a clinical thermometer a type of analog thermometer?
If its a digital readout, no, because it has a limited number of readings, whereas a analogue (liquid ) thermometer has a (theoreticallly) unlimited number of readings.
What are three different sorts of thermomenters?
Three different types of thermometers are :- 1. Liquid thermometer 2. Digital thermometer 3. Laser thermometer
The difference between a clinical and mercury thermometer?
All righto, ya gotta 'no wat da clinic n' da mercury thermometer is da... Foistly, clinic thermometer is da thermometer used to measure body temperature. Often the liquid inside it is mercury, but sometimes it is alcohol. It is very accurate because it has a narrow place where the liquid rises very fast. Den da mercury thermometer consists of mercury. Basically, it has..... yea blah blah blah, just look it up in ya dictionary. Anyways, da thing is there must be a problem with da questieon. Mercury thermometer has a almost accurate point but clinical thermometers have a very accurate things becausse it has a narrow place where the liquid rises very fast.
What does the sensitivity of thermometer depends on?
The difference between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the liquid in the thermometer bulb and the material of the bulb.
What liquid is inside thermometers?
If the liquid is silver, it is liquid mercury (Hg). If the liquid is red, it is coloured ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH).
What are the properties which make mercury suitable for clinical thermometer?
Its a liquid at room temperature and it has a high rate of thermal expansion and contraction(changes volume with temperature).
What is the liquid in thermometer's called?
Mercury the liquid inside thermometer is mercury.. but it is called thermometric liquid.
What causes the liquid to move in a thermometer?
When the liquid in the thermometer gets warmer it expands.
What is liquid-in-glass thermometer?
what do they use for the liquid in glass ball thermometer
What does a thermometer measure and how does it do it?
A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a variety of different principles. The word temperature comes from the Greek work thermo which is heat and meter to measure.
