What is measurement​

Physics
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

“Measurement” is the act of determining a target's size, length, weight, capacity, or other aspect. There are a number of terms similar to “measure” but which vary according to the purpose (such as “weight,” “calculate,” and “quantify.”) In general, measurement can be understood as one action within the term “instrumentation.”  

Explanation:

• To show measured results using values and symbols. • To use measurement tools.   Measuring a target can be done through either direct measurement or indirect measurement. An Indirect measurement is done, for example, by using a dial gauge to measure the height difference between a measurement target and a gauge block and using that height to indirectly determine the target's height. Because this type of measurement is based on a reference, indirect measurement is also referred to as “comparative measurement.

An ”Direct measurement is measurement done by bringing the target into contact with the measurement system to read the length, height, or other aspect directly. Although direct measurement allows measurement results to be known as they are, errors may occur depending on the skill of the person doing the measurement.

When you step inside a warm ski lodge on a cold day, you find your glasses fog. why does this occur?
marin [14]
Answer: Condensation of moisture in the air onto the glasses.

Explanation:
When you come from a cold environment into a warm ski lodge, the glasses are at a much lower temperature than that of the lodge.
Because the air in the room contains moisture (water vapor), it condenses on a surface whose temperature is lower than the dew point of the room.

A gas at a pressure of 2.10 atm undergoes a quasi static isobaric expansion from 3.70 to 5.40 L. How much work is done by the ga
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Total work done in expansion will be 3.60\times 10^5J

Explanation:

We have given pressure P = 2.10 atm

We know that 1 atm =1.01\times 10^5Pa

So 2.10 atm =2.10\times 1.01\times 10^5=2.121\times 10^5Pa

Volume is increases from 3370 liter to 5.40 liter

So initial volume V_1=3.70liter

And final volume V_2=5.40liter

So change in volume dV=5.40-3.70=1.70liter

For isobaric process work done is equal to W=PdV=2.121\times 10^5\times 1.70=3.60\times 10^5J

So total work done in expansion will be 3.60\times 10^5J
