1) Place thermometer perpendicular to the floor and against the wall.
2) Make a mark on the wall at the top of the thermometer.
3) Shift thermometer up so bottom is at mark.
4) Repeat 2) and 3) until close to the ceiling.
5) Shift thermometer up until it touches ceiling and mark location of highest mark on thermometer to determine fraction of thermometer length for last segment.
This would give the height of the room in units of "thermometers". This is not a standard unit of measurement, but it is a measurement. If you desire a more standard unit like centimeters, then measure the length of the thermometer and multiply by height of the room in "thermometers". However, you didn't say whether you had a ruler for measuring the thermometer. As as alternative, you could look up the length of the thermometer in the catalog from which it was purchased.

How do you measure room temperature using thermometer?
To measure room temperature using a thermometer, simply place the thermometer in the room for a few minutes to allow the temperature to stabilize. Then, read the temperature indicated on the thermometer display. Make sure the thermometer is calibrated and accurate for the most precise measurement.
How do you measure temp of room without a thermometer I only have a digital oral thermometer?
You can approximate the room temperature by placing your hand on a surface like a wall or tabletop. If it feels cool to the touch, the room may be below 70°F. If it feels neutral or slightly warm, it may be around 70-75°F. If it feels noticeably warm, it may be above 75°F.
A bulb thermometer gives an indoor temperature reading of 21 degrees celsius A digital thermometer in the same room gives a reading of 20.7 degrees celsius Which device is more precise?
The digital thermometer is more precise because it can measure temperature to one-tenth of a degree (20.7 degrees), while the bulb thermometer can only measure to whole degrees (21 degrees). The difference in precision is due to the digital thermometer's ability to provide more detailed readings.
Why we cannot you use your hand to measure temperature?
You cannot use laboratory thermometer to measure human body temp because of its markings. It is designed to measure large scale temperatures and therefore it may be hard to read the exact bocy temperature.
What do they use the thermometer in daily life?
In daily life, thermometers are commonly used to measure body temperature, check the temperature of food when cooking, monitor room temperature for comfort, and assess weather conditions.
