10 uses of hygrometer
Answers
Hygrometer, instrument used in meteorological science to measure the humidity, or amount of water vapour in the air. Several major types of hygrometers are used to measure humidity.
Mechanical hygrometers make use of the principle that organic substances (particularly finer substances such as goldbeater’s skin [ox gut] and human hair) contract and expand in response to the humidity. Contraction and expansion of the hair element in a mechanical hygrometer causes the spring to move the needle on the dial.
Electrical hygrometers measure the change in electrical resistance of a thin layer of lithium chloride, or of a semiconductor device, as the humidity changes. Other hygrometers sense changes in weight, volume, or transparency of various substances that react to humidity.
- Used in measuring of humidity in air.
- Used in measuring amount of water vapor in air.
- Used in measuring of temperature of air.
- Used in Incubators.
- Used in saunas and museums.
- Used in taking care of wooden musical instruments like guitars, violins.
