Why is a clinical thermometer not used to measure the temperature of air?

Statement - (A) : Thermistor can have only negative temperature coefficients of resistances. Statement - (B): Thermistors with negative temperature coefficients of resistance are used as resistance thermometers, to measure low temperatures of the order of 10 K.

A platinum resistance thermometer is constructed which reads 0^(@) C at ice point and 100^(@) C at steam point. The resistance of platinum coil varies with t as R_(1) = R_(0) (1+ alpha t + beta t^(2) ) . If t_(p) denotes temperature on the platinum resistance thermometer and t denotes temperature on mercury scale. Then resistance as the function of t_(p) will be:

Why do we jerk a clinical thermometer before we measure body temperature?

Mercury thermometers, without any modification can be employed to measure temperature ranging from

A thermometer is graduated in millimeters. It registers -3 mm when the bulb of thermometer is in pure melting ice and 22 mm when the thermometer is in steam at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. The temperature in °c when the thermometer registers 13 mm is

The resistance of the platinum wire of a platinum resistance thermometer at the ice point is 5 Omega and at steam point is 5.39 Omega . When the thermometer is inserted in a hot bath, the resistance of the platinum wire is 5.795 Omega . Calculate the temperature of the bath.
