Solution:
To measure length of an object accurately ,you should follow the following suggestions.
- the scale should be placed along the length To be measured. The scale should be placed very close to the object to be measured.
- keep your eye in line with the point of measurement. If the eye is not in line with the point of measurement, the measured length will be either shorter or longer than the actual length.
- Do not start measurement from the measurement from the worn out of damaged end of the scale. if the zero and of the scale is damaged, start measurement from some other mark of the scale. Then the actual length of the object is equal to the difference between the the readings at the two points.
Additional information
Different qualities are measured by using the appropriate devices. For example:
- length can be measured by using a metre scale or a measuring tape,
- mass of an object can be directly weighed on a balance using standard weights.
Sometimes measurement cannot be made directly by using a proper device. In such cases the method of measurement is modified. in this section we describe some interact methods of measurement.
Accurate measurement of any object is very essential. You can imagine what would happen if your tailor does not make accurate measurements.
To make accurate measurement we need a proper measuring device. The choice of the measuring device depends upon
- the size of the object to be measured
- the shape of the object to be measured
- the degree of accuracy needed
Some commonly used length measuring devices are :
- Ruler or metre scale- used for measuring straight objects.
- Measuring tape- used for measuring curved well as Straight objects .
