Chapter 12, Problem 11CQ
You need to precisely measure the dimensions of a large wood panel for a construction project. Your metal tape measure was left outside for hours in the sun on a hot summer day, and now the tape is so hot it’s painful to pick up. How will your measurements differ from those taken by your coworker, whose tape stayed in the shade? Explain.
