What is precision measure?
Precision measurement is that which has maximum uncertainity
What does precision in science terms mean?
If you are trying to ask "what does precision in science mean" then I can begin to answer your question. Precision in measurement is a way of deciding how accurate a measurement is. If I were to measure my height with a ruler stick and a pencil against a wall I would expect the measurement to be accurate to a few millimetres. This is usually expressed in scientific terms as "plus or minus" so many millimetres. It is considered unscientific and unfair to describe measurements you may make in scientific work to a greater precision than you can actually make. I am about 5.9 metres (+- 1 cm) but it would be inaccurate and unscientific to say that I was 5.9354 metres tall. JCF
Use an example to explain how the available tools can affect the precision of a measurement?
Let's take the example of measuring the length of an object using two different tools: a ruler and a tape measure. The ruler has markings in millimeters, while the tape measure has markings in centimeters. If we use the ruler, we can read the measurement more precisely as we can estimate the length between the markings in millimeters. However, with the tape measure, we can only estimate the length between the centimeter markings, which is less precise. Therefore, the available tools have a direct impact on the precision of the measurement.
What is the difference between precision and non-precision casting techniques?
nothing
What determines the precision of a calculated result based on a measurement?
the precision of the least precise measuement
Precision and non-precision measuring instrument?
precision instrument: caliper, micrometer non-precision measuring instrument: your hand, a piece of string
What is a precision unit?
A unit that is smaller than other units... like a decimal.
What is 1.44 inches on a ruler?
It is one score down from 4.3 inches on an extreme high-precision ruler.
What line on a ruler represents a unit?
The answer depends on the graduation (markings) on the ruler.
Does precision mean the smallest unit with which a measurement is made?
Yes.
What is the unit of a ruler?
It is centimeters and inches.
What the unit of a ruler?

which matric unit would you use to measure the capicity of refrigrater?
Ruler
A sentence with unit in it?
A unit was outside our house.
What are the precautions for using a ruler?
Make sure you are using the correct SI unit on the ruler.
Which is more precise measurements a wooden ruler or plastic ruler?
Precision is the agreement among several trials in measurement therefor, a wooden ruler is more precise because you will be estimating the measured value over and over again
How much is 0.59055 inch on a ruler?
It is 0.59055 inches, although in ordinary circumstances it would be impossible to measure to such precision.
