Why is a glass that filled with liquid less stable than an empty glass?
A glass filled with liquid has a higher center of gravity than an empty glass, making it more top-heavy and prone to tipping over. The liquid inside can also shift and slosh around, further destabilizing the glass.
How a liquid thermometer works using thermal expansions?
In the right conditions and circumstances all liquids will expand
What is the clear liquid inside a Galileo thermometer?
The clear liquid inside a Galileo thermometer is typically a hydrocarbon-based liquid, such as ethanol or mineral oil. This liquid expands and contracts with temperature changes, causing the glass spheres with different densities to float or sink.
Does the glass tube in a fire sprinkler expand more or less than the liquid inside the tube How do you know?
Loads more The liquid expands more than the glass envelope. You know this because the mechanism is designed to open the water valve to the sprinkler head when the glass envelope shatters when the liquid ruptures it as it heats up.
Why does water in a glass tube contracts first then expand when heated?
glass is a bad counductor of heat, so at first the glass flasks expands and its volume inside increases. the liquid which has not started to expand yet, drops to fill the extra volume inside

What is the liquid in a frangible - bulb fire sprinkler?
The glass bulb inside a fire sprinkler head is filled with a heat sensitive liquid (e.g., glycerine) that expands faster than the glass bulb as it gets hotter. Eventually, it expands so much that it causes the glass bulb to burst, releasing the water behind it.The different colors of liquid contained within the bulb correlate to the temperature at which the sprinkler head will activate:Orange - 135oFRed - 155oFYellow - 174oFGreen - 200oFBlue - 286oFPurple - 360oFBlack - 440OFDifferent colors are used in different environments depending on the average ambient heat in said environment. For instance, if you have a storage facility that needs to be kept at temperatures higher than 135 F, you can imagine why you wouldn't want a orange-bulbed fire sprinkler!

What is aStandard response fire sprinkler?
Standard response (SR) sprinkler heads are best suited for commercial or industrial buildings, including factories and warehouses. They activate individually to prevent causing water damage where there is no fire present. SR sprinklers take longer to activate than quick response sprinklers, requiring the heat from a fire below to reach a higher temperature before the liquid inside the bulb expands, the glass breaks, and water flows through the sprinkler head. SR sprinklers contain 5 mm glass bulbs that take longer for the expanding liquid inside to burst them. That said, these sprinkler heads still react within seconds, quickly dousing any fire.
What is the working principle of a liquid in glass thermometer?
A liquid-in-glass thermometer works based on the principle of thermal expansion. As temperature increases, the liquid inside the thermometer expands and rises in the calibrated glass tube. The level of the liquid indicates the temperature which corresponds with a specific scale on the thermometer.
What are the advantages of a liquid in glass thermometer?
When the glass thermometer is in contact with a warmer object, conduction will cause the galss bulb to warm. This will cause the liquid inside the bulb to warm and, as a result, to expand. Since this liquid has nowhere else to go, it will expand into the capillary at the end of the bulb. The capillary is placed next to a graduate scale which is calibrated to give the temperature.
Is it true you could not drink from a glass without friction?
It is true that drinking from a glass without friction can be challenging because the liquid would not stay inside the glass due to lack of adherence. Friction between the liquid and the glass allows the liquid to be lifted and contained for consumption.
Is the glass really empty?
It depends on your perspective. If the glass is filled with air, then it is not empty. If you are referring to liquid or substance inside the glass, then it may be empty.
