3/17/2016 AIM: How is temperature measured? VOCABULARY Celsius Thermometer Fahrenheit Eye level
3
3/17/2016 OBJECTIVE To successfully measure temperature using a thermometer
4
3/17/2016 DEFINITION What is temperature ? The average kinetic energy of a substance
5
3/17/2016 DEFINITION Why is one thing warmer then another? BECAUSE its average kinetic energy is greater
6
3/17/2016 QUESTION Why is one thing cooler then another? BECAUSE its average kinetic energy is less !
7
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
8
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
9
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 ????
10
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer The thermometer is marked off in equal units These units are called increments
11
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: You have to be careful to determine what units the increments actually represent
12
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: Each increment is DIFFERENT on each thermometer You have to check!
13
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: What is the increment on this thermometer You have to check!
14
3/17/2016 Lets Practice What is the increment on this thermometer The increment is 2 degree C 50 30
15
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer: What is the increment on this thermometer 35 - 30 = 5 5 divided by 10 =.5 You have to check! 35 30
16
3/17/2016 Lets Practice reading a thermometer? Is this correct ?

3/17/2016 20 40 Answer = 26 C o 30 Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
21
3/17/2016 20 40 Answer = 25 C o 30 Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
22
3/17/2016 -10 0 Answer = -7 C o Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
23
3/17/2016 -10 0 Answer = -8 C o Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
24
3/17/2016 -10 0 Answer=-7.5 C o Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
25
3/17/2016 -20-10 Answer =-10 C o 0 Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
26
3/17/2016 -20-10 Answer =-14 C o 0 Read the Thermometer and determine the increment:
