answ2. A micrometer is a precision mechanical measuring instrument greatly used in the engineering field. It will have a resolution of approx 0.001 of an inch (1/1000), or 0.01 millimetres. many instruments have vernier calibration which will give a resolution ten times greater that the above.
Micrometers come in models suitable for either inside or outside measurement.
When using a micrometer, be sure to not over-tighten, but a good instrument will have a torque-limiting thimble on the end of the spindle to limit this error, and improve repeatability.
If you look this up in a search engine, be sure to spell it with a capital M, otherwise you'll be directed to the definition of a micron.

How do you use micrometre in a sentence?
The germ measured a few micrometers.
Why does micrometre screw gauge work the way it does?
the screw gauge is an instrument which is used to measure length of an object.... the least count of an screw gauge can be found as follow.... l.c= pitch of the screw gauge no of divisions on main scale
What is the scale on the micrometer is used to measure too 0.0001?
The answer depends on the units used for 0.0001 : A micrometre is too crude to measure 0.0001 kilometres and not precise enough to measure 0.0001 nanometres. If you must ask questions about measurement units, perhaps you could try to ensure that you mention the relevant units with any measurements in the question!
What scientific tool can be used to measure accurately to two decimal place in centimeters?
A micrometre can be used.
How many nanometres equals a micrometre?
1000 nanometres = 1 micrometre.
1 micrometre how many meters?
1000000 micrometre = 1 metre
How many millimetres are there in one micrometre?
There are 0.001 millimetres in one micrometre.
How big is a micrometre?
A micrometre is one thousandths of a millimetre, so that 1000 micrometres is equal to 1 millimetre
What is the symbol for micrometre?
The symbol for micrometre is μm, μ being the Greek symbol mu.
What are smaller than micrometers?
A thousandth of a micrometre is a nanometre. A thousandth of that is a picometre. A thousandth of that is a femtometre. A thousandth of that is a attometre. A thousandth of that is a zeptometre. A thousandth of that is a yoctometre. There is also 1/10 nanometre, which is known as the Angstrom unit. An alternative answer to the question is, half a micrometre, a thrid of a micrometre, a quarter of a micrometre etc.
Abbrevation of micrometer?
Micrometre= µm
What fraction of a centimeter equals 1.0 micrometer?
1.0 micrometre/1 centimetre = 1 micrometre/10,000 millimetre = 1/10,000
How many centimeters are in a micrometre?
There are 10000 micrometres in one centimetre. Therefore, one micrometre is equal to 1/10000 = 0.0001 centimetres.
How many millimetres are in a micrometre?
There are 1000 micrometres in one millimetre. Therefore, one micrometre is equal to 1/1000 = 0.001 millimetres.
What is used to measure width?
A linear measure. Depending on the scale, it could be micrometre, millimetre, centimetre, metre, kilometre etc.
