Question

You find a micrometer (a tool used to

measure objects to the nearest 0.001 mm) that has

been badly bent. How would it compare to a new,

high-quality meterstick in terms of its precision? Its

accuracy?

Answer 1

The bent micrometer will be more precise but less accurate than the meterstick

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the micrometer is still in the working condition, it will be hard for the observer to find its accuracy or precision, which could be matched with the meter stick. Its accuracy can be compromised in comparison with the undamaged micrometer, but it would be more chances of highly precise.

The error which is find in the damaged micrometer would be less than as compared to the width of the hash marks on the stick.
