Girolamo Savonarola was an Italian priest active in Renaissance Florence. He was well known because of his denunciation of the Church's corruption, but also because of his prophecies of biblical renewal. He believed Florence would become the "new" Jerusalem, and that all secular art would be destroyed. He was eventually excommunicated, hanged and burnt in the main square of Florence.
He was able to amass a huge following during most of his life, and there were several reasons why his doctrine became so popular:
- General discontent with the abuses of the Church among the population. He also criticized the power abuses of the Medici, and the ills of society.
- It gave the people an alternative to the standard understanding of Catholicism. In fact, he criticized much of what Martin Luther would later condemn. Because of this, he is considered a precursor of the Reformation.
- His prophecies of destruction coincided with the invasion of Charles VIII of France, which threw Italy into chaos. Many believed this was proof of Savonarola's gift of prophecy.

The Bill of Rights is the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution. It spells out Americans’ rights in relation to their government. It guarantees civil rights and liberties to the individual—like freedom of speech, press, and religion. It sets rules for due process of law and reserves all powers not delegated to the Federal Government to the people or the States. And it specifies that “the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”
I mean to my understanding yes, the scale the object was measured on may have dust particles on it, making the accurate measurement not completely precise, or maybe some things that were out of your control alter the measurement. I hope this helps:))
