A constant volume air thermometer is used to determine the temperature of a furnace and the excess pressure in the bulb is found to be equal to `152x10^(-2)m` of mercury. At `0^(@)C` the pressure in the bulb is equal to that of the atmosphere. If the barometric height throughout the experiment is `76xx10^(-2)m` of mercury, calculate the temperature of the furnace.

A constant - volume gas thermometer is used to measure the temperature of an object . When the thermometer is in contact with water at its triple point (273K) the pressure in the thermometer is 8.50 xx10^(4) Pa . When it is contact with the object the pressure is 9.650 xx10^(4) Pa . The real temperature of the object is

The pressure of air in the bulb of constant volume air thermometer is 75 cm of mercury at 0^(@)C, 100 cm at 100^(@)C and 80 cm at the room temperature. Calculate the room temperature.

In a constant volume gas thermometer, the pressure of the working gas is measured by the differenced in the levels of mercury in the two arms of a U-tube connected to the gas at one end. When the bulb is placed at the room temperature 27.0^0 C , the mercury column in the arm open to atmosphere stands 5.00 cm above the level of mercury in the other arm. When the bulb is placed in a hot liquid, the difference of mercury levels becomes 45..0 Cm . Calculate the temperature of the liquid. (Atmospheric pressure = 75.0cm of mercury).
