Think of a ruler that’s a foot long. It’s made up of 12 inches. (Still no tens to be seen!) Each inch is usually divided into 16 parts. So we can have 1/16 of an inch or 5/16 of an inch. If we have 4/16 then that fraction becomes a 1/4. If we have 8/16 that b...
Electric current first flows out the top of the battery, through the wire and bulb and then returns via the bottom wire. So it always flows in a loop and two wires are needed to connect the voltage source to the load. In this example of a simple circuit, an AA cell forces current ...
Thickness indicates how thick the paper is and is usually referred to in point sizes or thousandths of an inch. The smaller the point, the thinner the paper. Some synthetic papers like our SmartFlex material, are sold in a ‘mil’ designation, also equal to one thousandth – these are all...
Express the terminating decimal 1.050 as the quotient of numbers. The decimal is read as two and eighty-three-thousandths. To express it as a quotient of numbers, you place 1.050 over 1000: 1050/1000 which simplifies to 21/20.
look at how you shape each letter; they analyze the act of writing. They examine the pressure you use and the speed and rhythm with which you write. They also record the sequence in which you form letters, like whether you add dots and crosses as you go or after you finish the word....
Kw___t locks used to use pins that were beveled for 15/1000 of an inch where the pins meet, this was to allow the keys to easily be inserted and used many hundreds of times without having to service the lock, but the down side was that it increased the picking tolerance to about ...
An example of dedication to precision can be illustrated by a plant that had an alignment standard of 2 thousandths of an inch for 1800 rpm shafts. To enforce this standard, they had a sign-off form for accepting a sub-standard alignment. So, for example, if someone wanted to start up ...
