Final answer:

A homemade thermometer indicates cooler temperature, advising to wear a jacket before going out.


Explanation:

Gas Thermometer: A homemade thermometer uses a piston that moves based on temperature changes. If the piston indicates a position of 20 L instead of 30 L at 100°C, it means the temperature is lower. So, you should wear a jacket before going out to stay warm.
