Doctors typically don't use lab thermometers for measuring body temperature because these thermometers are designed for different purposes and may not provide quick or safe readings on humans. Lab thermometers can take longer to register temperature changes and can be fragile or hazardous if broken. Instead, doctors prefer clinical thermometers, like digital or infrared thermometers, which are specifically designed for accurate and rapid measurements of human body temperature.

What are the name of the instruments use in measurement?

Measuring Instruments. 1. ruler 2. Thermometer 3. Light meter 4. Isomerism 5. Metric Ruler:- It is used to measure length. Thermometer:- It is used to measure temperature. Light Meter:- It tells us about the brightness. Isomerism:- It is used to measure the motions of the ground. Metric:- It is the measuring Instrument that scientist use. Thank you :)


How do you hook up a digitech whammy to voodoo lab pedal power 2?

You can't. You have to use the pedal's AC adapter or a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power AC. Pedal Power 2 is a DC unit; the Whammy is an AC unit.


Who made the first thermometer?

While the Greeks made simple thermometers (instruments for measuring temperature) as early as the first century B.C., Italian astronomer (a scientists specializing in the study of the stars, planets, and heavenly bodies) Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) is credited with inventing the modern thermometer. Called an air thermometer, it was a device in which a colored liquid was driven down by the expansion of air. As the air got warmer and expanded, the liquid dropped. In 1612 Italian physician Santorio Santorio (1561-1636), a friend of Galileo, adapted the device to measure the body's change in temperature due to illness. A century later, in 1714, German physicist Daniel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) invented the mercury (a metallic element) thermometer. Thermometers in use today, contain liquid mercury, which rises as it gets warmer. Galileo Galilei is often claimed to be the inventor of the thermometer. However the instrument he invented could not strictly be called a thermometer: to be a thermometer an instrument must measure temperature differences; Galileo's instrument did not do this, but merely indicated temperature differences.

When might you need to use a thermometer in a lab?

How is a lab thermometer different from a liquid thermometer?

A lab thermometer typically has a narrower temperature range and higher precision compared to a liquid thermometer. It may also be designed specifically for use in laboratory settings with features like resistance to chemicals or breakage resistance. Liquid thermometers use a column of liquid, such as mercury or alcohol, to measure temperature, while lab thermometers may use different mechanisms like resistance temperature detectors or thermocouples.

Where do doctors get their lab coats is there a lab coat store?

There are any number of places where doctors can obtain their lab coats. They can use disposable lab coats or can order personalized cloth reusables. Almost any place that sells uniforms should sell lab coats. Scientific supply houses also sell them.
