Albarran. CAREER: ELECTROMECHANICAL. GROUP: 3103.
LOCATION: ZAMORA, MICH. DATE: 11 / 09 / 06.
Objective: Learn to direct and indirect measurements using different measurement
tools. Material: a) Sheets of paper
b) Bolts and nuts
c) Currency.
Tool: a) Rules graduates (Dial Indicators)
b) Vernier: Millimeters:
How to take a reading: • Verify few millimeters exceeded the vernier of the majo
r scale. (Taking into account that every inch is 10 mm) • If the sliding scale 0
(is divided into 10 parts) does not match that of the major scale, verify which
of the 10 matches and adding parts that, but, in decimals.
Procedure: 1. Build a cardboard cube. 2. Measure its edge using a ruler. 3. Reco
rd the measurement of solids that produced each team. 4. Calculate the area. Usi
ng the formula A = 6L2 5. Calculate the volume. Using the formula V = L3 6. Deve
lop a data table and calculate the average Cube Measures

7. Measured with different instruments: a) Use a ruler to measure the sheet in a
workbook. I measure with a Dial Indicators, which take with the scale of 1:100,
which belongs to centimeters, and already making a millimeter measure the follo
wing results: Length = 20cm Width = 26.2cm
b) Use a vernier and do likewise. Measurement impossible. c) If you find any dif
ference, justifícala. The reason why the paper can not be measured with a vernie
r, is that the vernier is designed only to measure small, but with more accuracy
than a common rule graduated, and the advantage of these rules (also measuring
tape) is who have the ability to measure larger objects. 8. Using the vernier, i
t performs the following activities: a) Measure the diameter and length of a scr
ew. Diameter = 18.8mm screw head screw shank diameter = 11.35mm Screw Length = 4
5.2mm b) Measure the inner and outer diameter of a nut. Inside diameter = 13.9mm
OD = 23.65mm c) Measure the diameter of a coin. • A coin of 10 pesos = 27.9mm •
Coin 5 pesos = 25.6mm • Coin 2 pesos = 22.9mm • A coin of 1 peso = 20.75mm • A
coin of 50 cents = 21.55mm • Coin 20 cents = 18.8mm d) Measure the depth of a pe
n cap. Measured value = 34.75mm 9. Conclusions. A direct measurement is that we
can get through an instrument, the minute you put the instrument to make measure
ments, we realize what is your measure. For example, with the rod, at the time o
f measurement, we realized what was your measure. An indirect measure is that we
get, by means of a procedure, for example, when making a caliper measurement we
do not know their exact measurements, we have observed few millimeters and brok
e the sliding scale, but this match 0, We must find out which is the matching an
d adding the number in decimal. Arguably, there are precise instruments for meas
uring small, but in the case of major measures, we are not official and are only
for measuring small objects, and other instruments
which are designed to measure large objects but with less accuracy.
