The plural of thermometer is thermometers.
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.
An ear thermometer is commonly referred to as a tympanic 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.
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.
When a thermometer enters cold water, the temperature reading on the thermometer will decrease as the thermometer adjusts to the temperature of the water. The liquid inside the thermometer will contract and move down the scale, indicating the lower temperature of the cold water.

A "classroom thermometer" is a thermometer assigned to be kept in a specific classroom.
An ear thermometer is commonly referred to as a tympanic thermometer.
There is no difference between a heat thermometer and a regular thermometer. A thermometer measures the average kinetic energy of something, also known as heat. A thermometer's purpose is to measure heat, so a regular thermometer is the exact same thing as a regular thermometer, just with different names.
