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 the plural of thermometer?
The plural of thermometer is thermometers.
What do you call an ear thermometer?
An ear thermometer is commonly referred to as a tympanic thermometer.
What is a glass bulb of a thermometer?
A glass bulb of a thermometer is the part at the bottom of the thermometer that contains mercury or colored alcohol that expands and contracts with temperature changes. This expansion and contraction of the liquid is what causes the thermometer to measure and display the temperature.
What instrument measures how hot or cold something is?
A thermometer is the instrument used to measure how hot or cold something is. It typically consists of a small tube filled with a liquid (such as mercury or alcohol) that expands or contracts based on the temperature, indicating a numerical value on a scale.
How is thermometer useful in future purpose?

Who invented the water thermometer at 1593?
The water thermometer was invented by Galileo Galilei in 1593. He created this early form of a thermometer using the principle of thermal expansion of water, although it was not very accurate. Galileo's invention laid the groundwork for the development of more precise thermometric instruments in the future.
Where is mercury in where's waldo the future puzzle?
It's right above the flying saucers. There's a thermometer sitting on an asteroid.
What are the types of thermometer?
Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
What should you do when using ice-point method to calibrate a thermometer?
When using the ice-point method to calibrate a thermometer, first ensure that you have a mixture of ice and water at 0°C. Immerse the thermometer's sensing element in the mixture, ensuring it does not touch the container's sides or bottom. Allow the thermometer to stabilize for a few minutes, then read the temperature and adjust the thermometer as needed to ensure it accurately reads 0°C. Finally, document the calibration results for future reference.

Who invented the water thermometer in 1?
The water thermometer, often credited to Galileo Galilei, was developed in the early 17th century. However, the first practical version of a thermometer using water was created by the Italian inventor Santorio Santorio around 1612. His design allowed for more accurate temperature measurements, laying the groundwork for future thermometric advancements.
