Thermometer is to air pressure as what is to air pressure?

You asked the question wrong. The analogy was : Thermometer is to Temperature as Barometer is to Air Pressure.A meteorologist uses his Barometer to measure pressure in millibars, very small changes in the atmosphere's pressure. He uses the Thermometer to measure the air Temperature.


Does a thermometer tell you air pressure?

No a barometer does a thermometer measures temperature


How is a thermometer able to measure air?

a barometer is used to measure the air pressure, not a thermometer! A thermometer is used to measure the temperature.

What is in a thermometer and a barometer?

A thermometer measures temperature - most are now electric but they used to have alcohol or mercury in them. A barometer measures air pressure - they are now electric but used to have air in them (in a bellows with a spring).


What types of equipment would be used to measure the boiling point of a liquid?

You need two tools. To measure the air pressure you use a barometer and to measure the temperature at which the substance boils you use a thermometer. The boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure.


What is the different between barometer and thermometer?

A barometer measures the barometric pressure of the atmosphere. This has to do with the relative humidity. The more moisture suspended in the air, the more it weighs. A weather thermometer measures the temperature of the air.


Explain how a barometer and a thermometer are alike?

A thermometer and a barometer are alike, because a thermometer tells temperature, and a barometer tells air pressure. They sort off connect, because when you have lower air pressure, you get colder temperatures and when you have higher air pressure, you know then that the temperature will be hotter. You can kinda tell by looking at only one piece of data, what the other piece might be. I'm pretty sure that's right, I'm only in 7th grade.


How is air temperature measured?

How a thermometer is used?
