If you're talking about metric to imperial I think I can help! As an inch is 2.54cm and is usually referred to in thousandths, the metric system tends to be more precise as mm are usually used. As you can probably see though, you can get the same measurements from each but in a different format. EG. a thousandth of an inch is 0.00254mm but a thousandth of a mm is 0.001mm So really what I'm saying is.... choose your preference!

ans2. Accuracy is usually paramount. The True Value of a measurement is defined as 'the value towards which measurements tend, being made by competent experimenters and using different equipments'.
Accuracy is the amount by which your measurements approach the True Value.
And there are expressions for repeatability, reproducibility, and resolution.
A strain gauge (digital) balance will often be the most accurate piece of laboratory equipment.
Though not commonly realized, Mercury-in-glass thermometers are not very accurate, and they suffer from errors due to their recent history. As is true of much glass equipment. Volume is perhaps the least accurate of measurements.
So far I have referred to the Chem lab. But in the Electrical Lab, you will find the highest accuracies. And by association, Time measurements.

The prefix "Yocto-" means 10-24.

∙ 6y agoWhich group of measurements is the most precise (each group of measurements is for a different object)?
A 2g,3g,4g
B 2.0g,3.0g,4.0g
C 2g,2.5g,3g
D 1g,3g,5g
Answer - In precision measuring, look for numbers that are closest to each other in the data set. Here, the most precise would be C 2g,2.5g,3g because they are closer to each other than the numbers in the other sets.

What unit of measurement is used to measure the thickness of a notebook?
what unit of measure is thickness og a ballpen
Which unit is thickness measured in?
Sheet metal thickness can be measured in mm. Sheet's thickness is very less.
Which measurement is more precise 57 57.2 57.21 or 57.213?
The word accurate is a synonym for precise. So the most accurate (or precise) answer would be 57.213 because it is more accurate if the number is not rounded.
The markings on your 50mL beaker and 50mL Erlenmeyer flask would be accurate enough to use for precise measurement of volumes?
Yes, the markings on your 50 mL beaker would be accurate enough to use for precise meansurement of volumes. The markings on a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask would also be accurate enough.
Which measurement would help determine absolute dates by radiometric means?
the accumulation of the daughter isotope and the loss of parent isotopes
How would be the reading differ if the screw gauge is used instead of vernier calliper to measure the thickness of glass plate?
Verniers give you a less accurate approximation of the thickness, whereas a micrometer can give a more accurate measurement, often by 100 orders more accurate.
What measurement would a scientist use to measure the thickness of an ice sheet?
meter

What measurement would you use to measure the thickness of a phone book?
micometer screw gauge
What unit of measurement would you use to measure the thickness of a coin?
Coins are measured in millimetres.
What unit of measurement would you use to see the thickness of a coin?
Millimetres, as in 1.5 mm. You could use a micrometer to measure thickness of a coin.
That the measurement of that distance would be accurate?
Is a desirable thing in science.
Which unit is thickness measured in?
Sheet metal thickness can be measured in mm. Sheet's thickness is very less.
What scale of measurement would use to determine a persons age?
ordinal
What unit would you use to measure the thickness of a hair?
Units aren't used to measure anything. After you complete the measurement, using equipment suited to the purpose, you use units to describe the result of your measurement, and to tell other people about it. I would measure the thickness of a hair using a micrometer, and express the result in millimeters.
A hollow shaft has an outside diameter of 35mm and an inside diameter o?
Any measurement smaller than 35mm. That measurement would depend on the thickness of the material making the tube
