true
True or false...A wall clock is generally a more precise tool for measuring a length of time than a stop watch?
true
Why is 8.1956 most precise measuring device?
It is not; there are more precise measurements.
What tool is used in measuring height?
This depends on what you are measuring. A tool that can be used is a tape measure.
Why is mirometer a good measuring tool?
Because it is very simple mechanism manufacturer so much.
Is a chisel a measuring tool?
NO, a chisel is not a measuring tool. It is a cutting tool for removing small pieces of wood in very precise areas, as for installing a hinge or a lock plate in a doorjamb.

A measuring tape is generally a more precise tool for measuring length than having a person step off the distance?
true
What is the measuring tool which has the highest accuracy?
A: IT is not tool but the Colorado spring atomic clock is precise to 1 sec every 30 million years.
A wall clock is generally a more precise tool for measuring a length of time than a stop watch?
False
How can precise be used in a sentence?
Precise: Meridith was very PRECISE with her measuring: she'd make sure the sugar was EXACTLY a cup, no more and no less.

true
True or false...A wall clock is generally a more precise tool for measuring a length of time than a stop watch?
true
Explain why the clock pulse must be very narrow?
So it can be precise for measuring time.
Why significant figures represent the precision of a measurement and not its accuracy.?
A measurement that has a larger number of significant figures has a greater reproducibility, or precision because it has a smaller source of error in the estimated digit. A value with a greater number of significant figures is not necessarily more accurate than a measured value with less significant figures, only more precise. For example, a measured value of 1.5422 m was obtained using a more precise measuring tool, while a value of 1.2 m was obtained using a less precise measuring tool. If the actual value of the measured object was 1.19 m, the measurement obtained from the less precise measuring tool would be more accurate.
