We were really looking forward to solving this problem, and were terribly disappointed
to find that you had left out the distance between the marks. That's so sad, when just
a bit of proofreading could have prevented it.
marks on a number line showing where the numbers are
One way of doing it would be do put smaller tick marks in between the larger tick marks for whole numbers. So if you want to represent, 1, then 1.25, 1.50, 1.75 then 2 on a number line, you could put a large tick mark with the number '1' above it, then 3 evenly space smaller tick marks, then another large tick mark with the number '2' above it. If you have enough room, you could write the decimal numbers above the smaller tick marks, too.
Number of total marks x100
7.9 goes between the 7 and the 8 but real close to the 8. Actually, if there were ten equal marks between the 7 and 8 it would be the ninth one.
You start at zero, the one marks an inch from the zero mark, signifying one inch
the distance between the zero mark and scale marks represent how much it weight from nothing or empty.
If you are measuring with a ruler marked in mm, the '8' is the number of mm. The '2' can be estimated if you look closely between the millimeter marks.
It depends what they are measuring. A caliper does better with cylinders and things like that. A ruler does better with a flat distance between two marks.
Hash Marks
Well, if the measuring jug is large enough, all you need to do is fill it with water high enough that you can completely submerge yourself. Measure the water level before and after you get in, using the marking pencil. The distance between the two marks is your volume.
Use a ruler or tape measure.
No. The speed of a vehicle at the time of braking can be estimated by measuring skid marks, but the absence of skid marks doesn't mean the vehicle wasn't moving. Speed can be estimated by a number of other methods.
If the second hand is on a number, you multiply that number by five, and that's the number of seconds. If it's on one of the little marks between numbers, multiply the number it was on most recently by five, then add the number of marks it's passed between the last and next numbers.
It is used in measuring the volume of chemicals
It depends on the number of marks per inch. You can get measuring equipment with 8, 10, 16 or 32 marks per inch. Assuming there are 10 per inch, your height is 4 ft 11.6 inches.
The distance between two of the larger neighbouring marks on a metric ruler. Perhaps the width of your little finger.
-- Detect the particle as it passes a mark on the floor of the laboratory. -- Detect the particle as it passes a second mark on the floor of the laboratory. -- Measure the time between the two events. -- Measure the distance between the two marks on the floor. -- Divide the distance by the time. -- The quotient is the speed of the particle between the two marks.
