Give 5 reasons on why is measuring important.?

Question

5 different reasons

Answer 1

1. Most important is interchangeability. Measurement allows the products we use every day to be produced on a massive scale, which means the average person can afford luxury goods. Interchangeability really started with Eli Whitney, when President Jackson made the first order for completely interchangeable firearms. A master gage was decided on, and that was used as the template for all other parts. But length standardization had not yet been implemented in a broad way, which is next.

2. Standardization. Closely related, but not the same as interchangeability. You have to be able to measure very accurately in order to agree on a set of standards to enable broader interchangeability - how do you know everyone is using the same unit of measurement when they say "inch" or "meter?" Being able to measure different standards of length is another foundation of modern engineering.

3. Science. Measurement allows repeatable and verifiable experiments, and more importantly, quantified experimentation for the improvement of human knowledge.

4. Safety. Measurement allows engineers to produce designs that are within known saftey limits under certain conditions.

5. Cost. Known measurements permit the minimum of materials to be used in a given design, reducing cost.

Answer 2

1) Construction blue prints must be accurate to build something which is structurally sound.
2) Plans for the purchase and use of raw materials requires accuracy to limit the waste of money and materials-additional purchases for underestimated materials.
3) For cooking-too much yeast in bread which cannot be removed-too much or too little seasoning that adversely affects the foods taste.
4) Timing of traffic lights for optimal flow of traffic.
5) For dieters the weighing of food servings to keep track of calorie and carbohydrates for optimal weight loss.
Bonus
6) Air pressure of tires for optimal fuel efficiency.

Answer 3

1. To make the right decisions.
2. To pick the best answer.
3. To build the best house.
4. To build the best car.
5. To select the right size of condom.

Answer 4

1) To make sure things fit
2) So you can know where you are and how far you had to go to get there
3) so a woman can compare the size of a man
4) so you know how many squeezes of a cows udder will fill the milk churn
5) so I know how many answers I have given, which is now 5

Answer 5

1. so you know how big your tool is compared to your neighbors without having to ask your wife or his.2.so you know how far you can push your parents before getting to the all to low"up to here" that they've had it up to.3. so so you know who's pile of gold is bigger, yours or the taxmans(kinda an oxymoron huh?)4.so you know how far you need to walk for a cigarette,(1 mile-camel).5. so you know just how deep to dig the hole your wife is going to bury you in(6 feet)

Answer 6

It's not good for people to measure all the time!

Answer 7

Indolence vanishes
Analysis Begins
Misdemenour prevented
Notion understood and
Myth leaves!..
