The Galileo thermometers are the ancient device used to calculate the air temperature with help of the positioning of the spheres inside the liquid filled tube. There are a variety of thermometers available. 34cm Galileo thermometers are one of them which are 34cm in size, which is evident from its name.
No doubt the 21st century is an era of science but science has been a blessing from the time immemorial. Its reach is widening larger and larger day by day. It’s running at such a high pace that no one seems to stop it from ruling the world. Some of the great works and inventions of science have helped the world to develop at a faster pace. The immense success of the past is a great help for the present as well. What else can be considered the best example other than Galileo thermometers?

Galileo thermometers are vast glass tubes which become lively with the movement of the colorful bubbles. The assortment of the colorful bubbles is an eye-candy for the science learners. The practical representation of the scientific truth with the help of these thermometers will stir the interest of some students who otherwise consider science bookish and boring. The fascinating look of the Galileo thermometers will drive the attention of students towards physics. The thermometer was invented by a very famous physicist named Galileo Galilee. And so do the thermometers still put up with his name.

Galileo thermometers come in a number of varieties but the 34cm Galileo thermometers are the superlative variation of a kind. Although the concept of measuring air temperature is the same in both the types. This innovative kind of thermometer will enlighten the mind of the curious learners as they are diverse in shape, size, color and looks. These are beautiful 34cm Galileo thermometers with multi color balls. There are five to seven balls. These balls have tags attached to their bodies which help to read temperature between 16-28C. These tags actually display the weight of the balls. The procedure of reading the temperature is easy and very interesting. The light weighted balls float upwards to the surface of the cylinder or glass tube where as the heavy weighted balls sink to the bottom of the tube.

The air temperature is calculated according to the position of the balls in the 34cm Galileo thermometers. If the balls settled underneath the glass cylinder, it means the air outside the tube is hot and if the balls are floating to the brim of the tube, it implies that the air is cold outside the tube. Only theories will not help the students to grab the functioning of the Galileo thermometers, so the science labs should contain either of the above mentioned thermometers.
