- Measure the thickness of a few objects explaining the usage of the micrometer.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- N/A
Discussion:
A micrometer is used to measure thickness very accurately. This tool cannot be seen in a big class unless one uses the video system or lets the students come down to look at it.
