What would happen to the fuel indicators if all electrical power was lost in an airplane. Will the gauges still registe?

Gauges will not register in the event of total power loss but that's the least of your worries. Technically fuel gauges can be deferred if non-functioning on the ground. The pilot would "stick" the tanks and measure how much fuel is loaded. He can then calculate his fuel burn in Pounds Per Hour (PPH) and estimate amount of fuel in a tank. Aircraft usually have more fuel than required to make a specific route, in case they have to divert to other airports.

They are called gauges. Perhaps I don't understand the question. There is a fuel gauge, which tells you how much fuel you have, or an electrical gauge, or one that gauges speed. I guess depending on the gauge there is a different name. So your speed gauge is your speedometer. Your RPM gauge is the tachometer, and so on.
