Discrete as you cannot have half a purchase and do not need to use a measuring device.- Discrete : Information that is counted or measured in distinct separate units eg. kids in a family, books on a shelf- Continuous : Information measured along a continuous scale, requiring a measuring device eg. height, temperature, mass
What is accuracy in measurement and instrumentation?
Accuracy in measurement and instrumentation refers to how close a measured value is to the true or known value. It is a measure of systematic error, which denotes how well the instrument or measurement device is calibrated and free from biases. The accuracy is usually expressed as a percentage of the measuring range or as a specified number of units.
How do you encorportate significant figures when measuring the number of drops of water?
The answer depends on whether you are measuring the drops from a slow drip or the number of drops of water in an ocean!
What are some of the benefits of using a laser distance measuring device?
There are a number of benefits of using a laser distance measuring device. Some of the benefits are that they offer precision measuring technology, capability to measure length, area and volume and the ability for measuring in inches, feet or in metric measurements.
What is monitoring heart rate?
Heart rate monitor is personal monitoring device that measure the heart rate in real time (measuring the number of your heart's beat per minute).
What is a device for measuring speed of rotation?
A tachometer is a device used to measure the speed of rotation of an object. It typically works by counting the number of rotations per minute (RPM) of the object being measured, providing a numerical output that indicates its speed of rotation.
How to measure the ferrite number?
You can measure the ferrite number of a steel using a Severn Gage, a mechanical device; or using a ferrite scope, an electronic device, available from several manufacturers.
When you count the number of waves per second what are you measuring?

Measuring cup is used to measure?
you use a measuring cup to measure stuff. mostly cooking. Answer: you can use a dry measuring cup, or a liquid measuring cup. you use liquids such as water or veggie oil. for dry measuring cups, you put in dry stuff, such as baking flour or sugar. all you have to do is put the substance in and read the number. talk about easy and simple to use!!!
How can the number of significant figures in a measurement be increased without changing the measuring device?
There are at least a couple of ways. Each may not be appropriate in all circumstances.Read the measurement from markings between those that are numbered. For example, most rulers have numbered centimetres but the markings are at millimetres.If there are a number of identical items, then measure then together and take their average. For example, if you have ten identical coins, then the measure their combined mass and divide the answer by 10. That average will have one more sig fig. But the items MUST be identical.
Which one of Ben Franklin's inventions helped people measure distance?
Ben Franklin's invention, the odometer, helped people measure distance by tracking the number of rotations of a wheel linked to the vehicle's movement. This device was useful for measuring distances traveled by carriages and other wheeled vehicles.
Mechanical engineering measuring instruments?
There are a huge number of possibilities. What do you want to measure? Here are just a few: Calipers, micrometers, scales, measuring tapes, lasers, etc. for measuring distances. Rockwell hardness tester for measuring how hard a material is. Thermometer A sound meter for measuring how noisy a work place is. Pressure gauges Strain gauges for measure how much a part is stretched or compressed when a load is applied. Multimeter for measuring electrical voltages and currents. Tachometer for measuring how fast something is spinning
What was the nonstandard unit of the 'Gillette' used to measure in the 1960s?
It was used to measure the strength of a laser. In the 1960s, razor blades were pretty much similar in shape and a Gillette was a non-standard unit for measuring the strength of a laser beam. The measurement comprised the number of laser blades that a laser device could burn through.
What does a draughtsman uses for measuring?
