A thermometer is constructed by filling a small glass tube with a liquid that expands linearly with temperature. The thermometer is then calibrated at 0 \circ C and 100 \circ C, and the scale evenly divided between the two values. Unfortunately a manufacturing defect results in the middle one-third of the tube being narrower, otherwise the tube has uniform diameter. For what range of temperatures is the reading accurate?
