Compare with Definitions
Hydrometer
A hydrometer is an instrument used for measuring the relative density of liquids based on the concept of buoyancy. They are typically calibrated and graduated with one or more scales such as specific gravity.
Urinometer
An Urinometer is a simple piece of equipment for determining urine specific gravity. A typical urinometer is composed of a float, a weight, and a stem.
Hydrometer
An instrument used to determine specific gravity, especially a sealed, graduated tube, weighted at one end, that sinks in a fluid to a depth used as a measure of the fluid's specific gravity.
Urinometer
A hydrometer for measuring the specific gravity of urine.
Hydrometer
An instrument that floats in a liquid and measures its specific gravity on a scale.

Hydrometer
An instrument for determining the specific gravities of liquids, and thence the strength spirituous liquors, saline solutions, etc.
Urinometer
A small hydrometer for determining the specific gravity of urine.
Hydrometer
An instrument, variously constructed, used for measuring the velocity or discharge of water, as in rivers, from reservoirs, etc., and called by various specific names according to its construction or use, as tachometer, rheometer, hydrometer, pendulum, etc.; a current gauge.
