iT MEASURES SPECIFIC GRAVITY of liquids. ( differential balances called a Joly balance to name one type are used with solid matter. There are different types for measuring aquarium water density ( l.025 is USN grade saline) absolutely pure water woud be l.o as all Sg"s are measured in reference to water. There are different types, some have simplified scales. a type used by motorists and garage men to check battery electrolyte balance ( which was done with the motor switched off)- worked on the same principle but had four small sized balls. if all four balls went to the top of the sight glass, it would indicated the battery was fully charged- or more accurately the water density was that prescribed for a fully charged battery .( this test was conducted with the engine not running, so it does not run the battery down, so to speak. There are all kinds of Hydrometers. I can imagine specialized ones were used in the Battery room of Submarines- an all-important function. The type I just described is sometimes, and possibly incorrectly, called a Wassermann Hydrometer from the 4.0 ball reading- which is the same notation as the blood test for Syphilis. as Wassermann means Waterman in German, there may be some connection.
A hydrometer measures the specific gravity or density of a liquid, typically used to determine the alcohol content in a solution, such as beer or wine. By floating in a liquid, a hydrometer can provide a reading that indicates the concentration of sugars or alcohol in the liquid.
The hydrometer was invented in 1770 by Swiss mathematician and physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit.
The hydrometer will float higher in glycerin than in gasoline because glycerin is denser than gasoline. The level to which the hydrometer floats indicates the density of the liquid it is submerged in.
The property of water that causes the hydrometer to be read at the level of the meniscus is surface tension. The meniscus is the curved surface of the water in the hydrometer caused by the attraction between water molecules and the walls of the hydrometer. Reading at the bottom of the meniscus helps to ensure an accurate measurement.
A hydrometer can be used to find the specific gravity (relative density) of a liquid by determining how much water it will displace. Various calibrations are used for different kinds of liquids.
A hydrometer measures the density of liquids by floating in the liquid and sinking to a certain level based on the liquid's density. The higher the density of the liquid, the lower the hydrometer will sink. The scale on the hydrometer provides a reading of the liquid's density.
Hydrometers work by measuring the buoyancy of a liquid to determine its density. The hydrometer is a weighted glass tube with a scale inside. When placed in a liquid, the hydrometer floats at a certain level depending on the liquid's density. The scale on the hydrometer then indicates the density of the liquid based on where it is floating.
A hydrometer works by measuring the density of a liquid, which is related to its specific gravity. The hydrometer floats in the liquid, and the depth at which it sinks indicates the density of the liquid. By comparing this to the density of water, the specific gravity of the liquid can be determined.
It measured by the density of the size from the hydrometer.
A hydrometer works by floating in a liquid and measuring how high or low it floats based on the liquid's density. The higher it floats, the lower the density of the liquid, and vice versa.
The least count of a hydrometer typically ranges from 0.001 to 0.005 depending on the specific design and purpose of the hydrometer. This value represents the smallest incremental measurement that can be read on the scale of the hydrometer.
Mrs.Tuft used a hydrometer to determine the specific gravity of a liquid
A hydrometer is a device used to measure the specific gravity or relative density of liquids. In Hindi, a hydrometer is called "हाइड्रोमीटर" (pronounced as "haideromeetar").
A hydrometer measures the specific gravity or density of a liquid, typically used to determine the alcohol content in a solution, such as beer or wine. By floating in a liquid, a hydrometer can provide a reading that indicates the concentration of sugars or alcohol in the liquid.

To measure specific gravity in a liquid using a hydrometer, you simply place the hydrometer in the liquid and read the value where the liquid surface intersects the scale on the hydrometer. This value indicates the specific gravity of the liquid.
a mathimatical term called a unit of hydrometer is what the study of gravity and other measurements
