UNIT I- BASICS OF MEASUREMENTS
1. What is Range ofmeasurement?
The physical variables that are measured between two values. One is
1. 2 CO1
the higher calibration value H, and the other is Lower value L, The
difference between H, and L, is called range.
2. What is Resolution?
2. The minimum value of the input signal is required to cause an appreciable 2 CO1
change in the output known as resolution.
3. Differentiate between sensitivity and range with suitable
example.
4. Example:AnInstrumenthaveascalereadingof0.01mmto100mm.
3. Here, the sensitivity of the instrument is 0.0lmm i.e. the minimum 2 CO1
value in the scale by which the instrument can read. The range is 0.01 to
100mm i.e. the minimum to maximum value by which the instrument can
read.
5. Define system error andcorrection
Error: The deviation between the results of measured value to the actual
4. value. 2 CO1
Correction: The numerical value which should be added to the measured
value to get the correct result.
6. DefineMeasurand.
5. 7. Measurand is the physical quantity or property like length, 2 CO1
diameter, and angle to be measured.
8. Define: DeterministicMetrology.
The metrology in which part measurement is replaced by process
6. measurement. The new techniques such as 3D error compensation by CNC 2 CO1
systems are applied.
9.
Give any four methods ofmeasurement
1. Directmethod.
7. 2. Indirectmethod. 2 CO1
3. Comparisonmethod.
Coincidencemethod
Give classification of measuringinstruments.
4. Angle measuringInstruments.
8. 2 CO1
5. Length measuringInstruments.
6. Instruments for surfacefinish.
7. Instruments for deviations.
Define True size.
9. 2 CO1
True size is Theoretical size of a dimension
11. Define Actualsize
10. 2 CO1
Actual size = Size obtained through measurement with permissible error.
12. What isHysteresis
All the energy put into the stressed component when loaded is not
11. 2 CO1
recovered upon unloading. So, the output of measurement partially
depends on input called hyteresis.
13. Differentiate accuracy and Uncertainty withexample.
Accuracy - Closeness to the true value.
12. Example: Measuring accuracy is ± 0.02mm for diameter 25mm. 2 CO1
Herethemeasurementtruevaluesliebetween24.98to25.02mm Uncertanity
about the true value = ±0.02mm
14. DefineSpan
The algebraic difference between higher calibration values to lower
13. calibration value. 2 CO1
Example: In a measurement of temperature higher value is 200*C and
lower value is 1500C means span = 200 - 150 = 50'C
Differentiate between precision and accuracy.
Accuracy - The maximum amount by which the result differ from true
value.
14. 2 CO1
Precision - Degree of repetitiveness. If an instrument is not precise it will
give different results for the same dimension for the repeated readings.
