The longitude (abbreviation: Long., Î», or lambda) of a point on the Earth's surface is the angle east or west from a reference meridian to another meridian that passes through that point. All meridians are halves of great ellipses (often improperly called great circles), which converge at the north and south poles.
Use the dual thermometers to calculate relative humidity. Fisher Scientific Mason's Hygrometer has one dry thermometer and one wet thermometer which provide temperature readings for determining the relative humidity.
This type of hygrometer uses two basic mercury thermometers, one with a wet bulb one with a dry bulb. Evaporation from the water on the wet bulb causes its temperature reading to drop, causing it to show a lower temperature than the dry bulb. Humidity is important for our comfort and our health.
