How does a laser-ranging device work?

The laser light is pulsed and shone onto a reflective surface. The returned reflection is picked up by a phototransistor. The time taken for the pulse to be sent and returned, can be measured by electronics within the device. The speed of light is 300,000 Km /sec, (186,000 miles/sec) which is very fast, but finite. The timing circuits within the device have to be very accurate and stable. This is acheived by using crystal oscillators within the device, to act as timing comparison.


How do you measure the viscosity of a liquid?

you can measure it by dropping a lead ball into the liquid while timing it with a stop watch if it is runny then it is more viscous and when it is thick and not runny it is less viscous.

Is the time taken to run 10 kilometers discrete or continuous variable?

It is a continuous variable. BUT as soon as you measure it, the limitations of your timing device make the observation a discrete variable - even if you can measure with an accuracy of a nanosecond.


Is it that track events involve timing and not field events?

That is correct. Track events are won by who can run the fastest (timing) and field events are won by who can throw the furthest or jump the furthest/highest (distance/height).
