A mercury thermometer has a capillary tube of 0.25mm diameter. The bulb and capillary tube are made of zero expansion material. Assume the operating temperature is 20?C and the coefficient of volumetric expansion of mercury is 0.181 ×10?3/?C What is the thermometer bulb volume if a sensitivity of 2.5mm/?C is desired?
