Question

Name the device which you will use to measure the perimeter of your playground. Describe in steps how you will use it.

Answer 1

Hint: Measurement is the quantification of an object's or event's properties so that they may be compared to other objects or events. Measurements scope and applicability are determined by the environment and discipline. Measurements do not apply to nominal qualities of things or events in natural sciences and engineering, which is in keeping with the principles of the International lexicon of metrology established by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures.

Complete answer:
A tape measure, often known as a measuring tape, is a flexible ruler that is used to measure length or width. It is made up of a linear-measurement ribbon made of fabric, plastic, fiberglass, or metal. It's a common measurement instrument. Its form enables a long measure to be carried in a pocket or toolbox, and it may be used to measure around curves and corners.

It is now so common that it may even be found in tiny as a keychain fob or novelty item. Surveyors use tape measures that are over 100 metres long. The Romans were the first to use a measuring instrument, which consisted of marked strips of leather that were more like a standard ruler than a tape measure.

The circumference of our playground will be measured with a measuring tape. The tape is distributed throughout the length of the curving area to measure the length of the playground. The tape measure's accuracy is determined by the tape's ends and the marks written on the tape.

Note:The precision of a retractable tape measure's end is determined by the sliding mechanism and thickness of the hook. The European Commission (EC) has established a non-obligatory categorization system for tape measure accuracy, with certified tapes falling into one of three categories: I, II, or III.
