When two or more systems/bodies are in thermal equilibrium, their temperatures are same. This principle is used to measure the temperature of a system by using a thermometer.
Statement :
When a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in any of the factors determining the equilibrium conditions of a system, system will respond in such a way...
1. Thermometer indicating lower temperature is held in mouth by patient.
2. As body of patient is at higher temperature, heat energy is transferred from patient to thermometer.
3. When temperature of...
1. An instrument designed to measure temperature is called as thermometer.
2. Any property of a substance which changes sufficiently with temperature can be used as a basis of constructing a thermometer...
1. Thermometer must be sensitive, i.e., a noticeable change in the thermometric property should be observed for a very small change in temperature.
2. It has to be accurate.
3. It should...
