3/17/2016 AIM: How is temperature measured? VOCABULARY Celsius Thermometer Fahrenheit Eye level
3/17/2016 OBJECTIVE To successfully measure temperature using a thermometer
3/17/2016 DEFINITION What is temperature ? The average kinetic energy of a substance
3/17/2016 DEFINITION Why is one thing warmer then another? BECAUSE its average kinetic energy is greater
3/17/2016 QUESTION Why is one thing cooler then another? BECAUSE its average kinetic energy is less !
3/17/2016 In the United States How is temperature measured ? Fahrenheit What is the freezing point of water? 32 degrees F What is the boiling point? 212 degrees F
3/17/2016 In the Metric System How is temperature measured ? CELSIUS What is the freezing point of water? O degrees What is the boiling point? 100 degrees
3/17/2016 Which system do you think is easier? Memorizing 32 and 212 degrees Or Simply knowing 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling ????
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer The thermometer is marked off in equal units These units are called increments
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: You have to be careful to determine what units the increments actually represent
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: Each increment is DIFFERENT on each thermometer You have to check!
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: What is the increment on this thermometer You have to check!
3/17/2016 Lets Practice What is the increment on this thermometer The increment is 2 degree C 50 30
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: What is the increment on this thermometer = 5 5 divided by 10 =.5 You have to check! 35 30
