Does a thermometer tell you air pressure?
No, a thermometer measures temperature, not air pressure. Air pressure is typically measured using a barometer.
What is the opposite of barometer?
The opposite of barometer is likely to be an object that does not measure atmospheric pressure, like a clock or a thermometer.
What is the antonym for thermometer?
Oh, dude, the antonym for thermometer would be... I don't know, like, maybe "thermoforgetter"? Just kidding! The actual antonym for thermometer would be "thermostat." Thermometer measures temperature, while a thermostat controls it. So, like, they're kind of like frenemies in the world of temperature regulation.
What is in a thermometer and a barometer?
A thermometer typically contains a liquid such as mercury or alcohol that expands and rises as temperature increases. A barometer contains a column of liquid (often mercury) that changes height in response to changes in atmospheric pressure.
How do you increase the range of a thermometer?
To increase the range of a thermometer, you can use a thermometer with a wider temperature range or select a different type of thermometer that is capable of measuring higher or lower temperatures. Additionally, some digital thermometers allow you to switch between different units of measurement to expand their range.
