what is the difference between clinal termometer,laboratory thermometer and six's thermometer?

laboratory therm... : the measurement is from -10.C to 110.C and the measurement should be taken quick becauz when we will take out the measurement will be gone.it is used for measuring temperature of objects in laboratory

while

clinical thermom.. : the measurement is from 35.C to 42.C and the measurement remains till we give jerks to it ( not so much that it breaks and here we are talking about mercuric thermometer not digital thermometer. ).it is used by doctors for measuring the temperature of human body.

six's therm.. :

Six's thermometer is a registering thermometer which can record the maximum and minimum temperatures reached over a period of time, for example 24 hours. It is used to record the extremes of temperature at a location, for instance in meteorology and horticulture. It was invented by Englishman James Six in 1782; the same basic design remains in use.

It is also commonly known as a maximum-minimum, minimum-maximum, maxima-minima or minima-maxima thermometer, of which it is the earliest practical design.

The thermometer indicates the current temperature, and the highest and lowest temperatures since last reset.

hope so the question is solved

just take a look of the pictures

it is a six's thermometer.

it is a clinical thermometer.

its a laboratory thermometer,

hope helping nice then thums up and if rong just say me please

the dfference between clinical and laboratory thermometer is that

laboratory therm... : the measurement is from -10.C to 110.C and the measurement should be taken quick becauz when we will take out the measurement will be gone.

while

clinical thermom.. : the measurement is from 35.C to 42.C and the measurement remains till we give jerks to it ( not so much that it breaks and here we are talking about mercuric thermometer not digital thermometer. )

hope t helps

cheers and smils

and of of course

if it solves then

thums ups plz..!!!

CLINICALTHERMOMETER - A clinical thermometer is an instrument that measures human body temperature. Clinical thermometers have a tip that is inserted into the mouth, under the tongue, under the armpit and into the rectum. The different types of clinical thermometers include liquid filled, electronic and basal thermometers. It measures from 350C to 420C.

LABORATORYTHERMOMETER - A laboratory thermometer is an instrument used to measure temperatures or temperature changes with a high degree of precision. Some of these thermometers have temperature divisions of 1 C and are usually filled with red spirit rather than mercury. Examples of commercial laboratory thermometers are; BS593 thermometers and IP thermometers.It measures from - 100C to 1100C

SIX"STHERMOMETER- The six's thermometer or the minimum and maximum thermometer is a thermometer that will tell you the minimum and maximum temperature in a given time period. This thermometer is U-shaped. One half is filled with alcohol, while the other filled with an alcohol vapor or contains a vacuum.
