575. How does a thermometer work?

A thermometer has a glass tube sealed at both ends and is partly filled with a liquid like mercury or alcohol. As the temperature around the thermometer's bulb heats up, the liquid rises in the glass tube. The glass tube is mounted on a backboard that is marked in units called degrees. When it is hot, the liquid inside the thermometer will expand and rise in the tube. The opposite happens when it is cold. The temperature on a thermometer is read by finding the level of the liquid in the tube and the number on the temperature scale across from it. The temperature is written in numbers with the (degree) sign. For example, 70°F is read: 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

574. What is a Mirage?

A mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays are bent to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky. The word comes to English via the French Mirage, from the Latin mirari, meaning "to look at, to wonder at". This is the same root as for "mirror" and "to admire".
You might think you are hallucinating when traveling on a hot afternoon, but mirages are a naturally-occurring optical illusion in contrast to visual hallucination. It can equally be captured on a camera.
