Tips
  • 4A10.25 = Measure temperatures with thermocouple
  • 4A20.30 = maximum density of water; A flask with a narrow stem shows volume changes and a thermocouple shows temperature changes when water is allowed to warm from 0 C.
  • 4B40.60 = surface absorption; A radiant heater is placed midway between two junctions of a demonstration thermocouple and the junctions are covered with black or white caps.
  • 4B60.? = for measuring the temperature difference
  • 4B70.30 = adiabatic heating and cooling; An air cylinder moves a piston back and forth and a thermocouple measures the temperature.
  • 4C20.10 = A small test tube of water is cooled in a Peltier device and the temperature is followed with a thermocouple.
  • 4C20.54 = Place a thermocouple cooled in liquid nitrogen in warm water.
