Why is a medical thermometer 35 to 42 Celsius?
A medical thermometer only has a range of 35 to 42 celsius, as that is the only realistic temperature range that the human body will be in between. This is because, if anyone is below 35 celsius, or above 42 celsius, then they will be dead, or close to dying, and you don't need a thermometer to recognize either of these symptoms.

How can one measure the temperature of hot air oven should i check it hanging thermometer in it through measument soket provided or keeping water in it and dipping thermometer in it through soket?
If you ever want to measure a temperature above 212 degrees, you're better off hanging the thermometer into the air in the oven. Since it's a hot-air oven, you want to measure the air. If it were a hot-water oven, you might prefer to measure water. But even then, what are you gonna do above 212, when the water goes away and all you have in there is steam ??
What happens to the mercury in the thermometer when the air is cool?
In a mercury thermometer, the level of mercury falls as the temperature of the air around it cools.A mercury thermometer has a bulb of mercury at the bottom and a thin tube above it with markings in Celsius degrees or Fahrenheit degrees. When the temperature warms, the mercury expands and rises up the tube. When the temperature cools, the mercury contracts and shrinks back toward the bulb at the bottom.
