Aneroid barometer would also work for the altimeter, for that is what it is.

The picture for acceleration looks like a depiction of asymptote. Also, an angle is not an intersection of lines, it's a measurement of an intersection of lines, so the category threw me off.

Agreed on the weird description for "angle" however that graph definitely does not depict an asymptote.

An asymptote is a limit that a curve on a graph will forever get closer to, without quite reaching. The blue curve on the graph looks like it touches the green line, but even if it doesn't quite do so, it pulls away sharply and goes off in another direction, which precludes the green line from being an asymptote.

The Archimedes one looks like some kind of creature stretching its neck with its mouth open. Threw me off for a sec, had to enlarge the photo to realize what it was.
