Anemometer Function:
Anemometer Function: Used to measure wind speed
Psychrometer Function:
Psychrometer Function: Used to measure humidity
Telescope Function:
Telescope Function: Magnifies objects to make them look brighter and larger
Beaker Function:
Beaker Function: To hold and work with liquids, the beaker is made of specialized glass so it can be heated and cooled without breaking.
Meter Stick Function:
Meter Stick Function: straight edge strip of wood, metal or plastic for measuring lengths using the metric system
Graduated Cylinder Function:
Graduated Cylinder Function: Used to measure the volume of a liquid. Graduated cylinders are more accurate than beakers. They can also be used to find the density of an object.
Hot Plate Function:
Hot Plate Function: an electronic device with a metal surface, used for heating liquids in a laboratory setting
Spring Scale Function:
Spring Scale Function: Hang a weight on the free end of a spring scale to measure that object's weight or force (in newtons)
Triple Beam Balance Function:
Triple Beam Balance Function: Device for measuring mass using three beams, that when added together, give you the objects mass
Microscope Function:
Microscope Function: Instrument that magnifies (makes bigger) small objects that cannot be seen with the eyes
Timing Device Function:
Timing Device Function: Electronic piece of equipment to measure accurately a set amount of time
Calculators Function:
Calculators Function: portable, often inexpensive electronic device used to perform both basic and complex math problems
Spectroscopes Function:
Spectroscopes Function: A spectroscope helps see light emitted by the electromagnetic spectrum. Light enters a slit and a collimating lens transforms the light into a thin beam of parallel rays.
Thermometer Function:
Thermometer Function: Instrument for measuring temperature. Mercury in the bulb expands or shrinks as temperature goes up and down
Bunsen Burner Function:
Bunsen Burner Function: Piece of equipment used in laboratories to produce a gas flamein order to heat or sterilize (make clean)
