Suppose, that you are measuring the length of a wood block and the edge of your block appears to be lined up exactly with a millimeter mark. How would you express the estimate part of a millimeter when you record the block’s length?

Respuesta :

The estimate part of a millimeter when recording the block’s length can be expressed as ± 0.5 mm.

What are measurements?

Measurements are the processes by which the attributes and properties of a given object or substance is quantified.

There are two types of measurements that can be obtained from any given object and they are:

  • quantitative measurements
  • qualitative measurements

Quantitative measurements measures the properties of objects in terms of numbers. Some examples of quantitative measurements are length, temperature, time, mass, etc.

Qualitative measurements describe the non-numerical features of objects such as color, texture, etc.

Measurement of length of a block of wood is a quantitative measurement.

The uncertainty or estimate of the millimeter block = ¹/₂ * 1 mm = ±0.5 mm
