What has two thermometers (a wet bulb thermometer and a dry thermometer)?
A psychrometer has two thermometers: a wet bulb thermometer and a dry bulb thermometer. It is used to measure relative humidity and can also determine dew point.
How do you tell how hot or cold something is?
use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.
What is a max-min thermometer?
A max-min thermometer is a type of thermometer that records the maximum and minimum temperatures reached over a specific period. It contains two markers that can be moved by the mercury or alcohol in the thermometer to indicate the highest and lowest temperatures. This type of thermometer is often used to monitor temperature fluctuations in indoor or outdoor environments.
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.
How is the calibration thermometer used?
A calibration thermometer is used to check the accuracy of another thermometer. By comparing the readings of the two thermometers at various temperature points, you can determine if the thermometer being tested is displaying correct temperature measurements. This is important for ensuring the reliability of temperature readings in various applications, such as scientific experiments or food preparation.
Kinds of thermometer and their uses?
Three types of Thermometer:- i) Centigrate ii) Kelvin & iii) Fahrenheit
Why are there different kinds of thermometer?
to measure different temperatures
What are the two main types of thermometer used today?
clinical thermometer and lab thermometer
What make's a good thermometer?
All we ask of a thermometer is to be accurate in measuring temperature. Although different kinds of thermometers can be used for different temperature ranges.
What is a food thermometer used for?
A food thermometer is typically used for measuring the temperature of different kinds of food. One can measure the temperature of meat, milk products and other kinds of food to ensure that it is stored according to its specified temperature.
What is a dual probe thermometer?
this is a thermometer that can work twice as much as a normal thermometer or a thermometer that can check the temperature of two things at the same time
What are two parts of psychrometer?
The two parts of a psychrometer is the dry-bulb thermometer and the wet-bulb thermometer.
What is in the laboratory thermometer?
There are many kinds of thermometer in use. Liquid in glass thermometers usually contain alcohol (dyed red or blue) or mercury (silvery coloured).
What has two thermometers (a wet bulb thermometer and a dry thermometer)?

What instrument is used to measure thermometer?
its in the answer..its thermometer...there are two thermometers..Celsius and Fahrenheit....
What tool do use to measure temperature?
A thermometer, of which there are literally thousands of different kinds depending on their intended application.
