What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature? *

Physics
1 answer:
Nana76 [90]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Because of the fine bore of the tube.

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness. And thermometer is the instrument use to measure temperature.

The two most common types of themometric fluids for thermometer are alcohol and mercury.

What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature is because of the fine bore of the tube which makes it possible for small temperature changes to cause large changes in the length of mercury columns, making the thermometer very sensitive to temperature changes.

The most prominent feature of the thermometer is the kink or constriction of bore near the bulb.

Which moves more: the air molecules or the energy of the sound?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A sound wave can be affected by a lot of different variables. As an audio engineer some of the more common things we deal with involve air temperature, humidity and even wind. The first two affect the speed at which the wave travels, while wind can actually cause a phase like effect if it is blowing hard enough. Another big one though not directly related to the air is walls and other solid objects that cause the sound wave to bounce off of them and reflect. This causes a secondary wave that isn’t as strong as the first wave but is the cause of “muddy” sounding venues when you are indoors.

The particles of the medium just vibrate in place. As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on.

belka [17]

Answer:

Illumination  = 200 fc

luminance =  2FL

Explanation:

given data

desired brightness = 100 fL

painted medium green reflectance = 50 percent

illumination = 4c

solution

we get here Illumination by using the formula that is

Illumination = luminance ÷ reflectance   ......................1

Illumination  = 100 fL ÷ 0.50

Illumination  = 200 fc

With light colored cream paint with a reflectance of 75%  the required illumination is 133 fc.

and

luminance will be

luminance = Illumination × reflectance = 4fc × 0.5 = 2FL
