answ2. A micrometer is a precision mechanical measuring instrument greatly used in the engineering field. It will have a resolution of approx 0.001 of an inch (1/1000), or 0.01 millimetres. many instruments have vernier calibration which will give a resolution ten times greater that the above.

Micrometers come in models suitable for either inside or outside measurement.

When using a micrometer, be sure to not over-tighten, but a good instrument will have a torque-limiting thimble on the end of the spindle to limit this error, and improve repeatability.

If you look this up in a search engine, be sure to spell it with a capital M, otherwise you'll be directed to the definition of a micron.
