Does a Kelvin thermometer contain mercury or alcohol?
There is no mechanical difference between a kelvin thermometer and any other kind so I think it would be the same as other thermometers i.e. Alcohol (because it is not as dangerous as mercury)
What liquids are found in a maximum and minimum thermometer?
A maximum thermometer typically contains mercury, which expands and contracts with temperature changes, allowing for precise measurements of high temperatures. In contrast, a minimum thermometer usually contains alcohol (often colored for visibility), which contracts more than mercury and can accurately indicate low temperatures. The design of both thermometers allows for the liquids to remain in place at the maximum or minimum temperature recorded until manually reset.
Which planet has a face hot and a face cold?
Mercury, with almost no atmosphere, is also closest to the sun and has the largest range of temperatures between the side facing the sun and the side facing away - a difference of about 600 K.
Temperatures on mercury-?
Mercury is a very hot planet. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.
How hot does it get on the side of mercury closest to the sun?
Temperatures on the side of Mercury that faces the Sun can reach up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit (430 degrees Celsius) due to the planet's lack of atmosphere to regulate heat. This extreme temperature difference between the day and night side of Mercury is one of the most significant in our solar system.
What are the temperatures of the five planets closest to the sun?
For the planets Mercury and Mars, their maximum and minimum temperatures are listed:* Mercury (minimum = -184 °C; maximum = 465 °C) * Venus (average = 449 °C)* Earth (average = 7.2 °C)* Mars (minimum = -123 °C; maximum = 36 °C)* Jupiter (average = -153 °C)
What is the application of a Six's thermometer?
A Six's thermometer is typically used in meteorology to measure the minimum and maximum temperatures over a period of time. It consists of two mercury columns that are moved by the mercury in the thermometer to indicate the highest and lowest temperatures reached.
What is the difference between high and low pressure mercury lamps?
High pressure mercury lamps operate at higher pressures and temperatures, producing a bluish light with higher energy efficiency compared to low pressure mercury lamps. Low pressure mercury lamps operate at lower pressures and temperatures, producing a softer, more diffuse light with lower energy efficiency.
What is the difference between the 1950 Mercury club coupe and the Mercury coupe?
A rear seat
What the different between average temperatures of mercury and venus?
Approx 295 Celsius degrees.
What planet has a huge temperature difference between night and day sides?
Mercury All planets have very different temperatures at the surface. Mercury's Maximum Temperature 465°C (870°F) Mercury's Minimum Temperature -184°C (-300°F) Venus' Average Temperature 449°C (850°F) Earth's Average Temperature 7.2°C (45°F) Mars's Maximum Temperature 36°C (98°F) Mars's Minimum Temperature -123°C (-190°F) Jupiter's Average Temperature -153°C (-244°F) Saturn's Average Temperature -184°C (-300°F) Uranus' Maximum Temperature -184°C (-300°F) Neptune's Average Temperature -223°C (-370°F)
What is fascinating about mercury the planet?
The fact that its daytime and nighttime temperatures vary between -183C and +427C.

What is the size difference between Mercury and Earth?
The size of your mommas stomach
What is the difference between Mercury barometer and a aneroid barometer?
their spelling is different.
What is the difference between a Mercury 90 horsepower motor and a Mercury 115 horsepower motor?
25 horse power.
