Explanation of Solution

Given:

A type of ball point pen is shown below:

Mathematics For Machine Technology, Chapter 34, Problem 1A , additional homework tip  1

Concept used:

Use the digital caliper to measure the length of the ballpoint pen.

Calculation:

Following are the steps to measure the length of the ballpoint pen:

  • Press the ON/OFF button to on the digital caliper. Set the millimeter measurement by pressing mm button.
  • Set the jaws to zero measurement by pressing ZERO button as shown below:
  • Mathematics For Machine Technology, Chapter 34, Problem 1A , additional homework tip  2

  • Put the ballpoint pen in between lower jaws and take the reading on the LCD display. The reading for the length is 140 mm shown in LCD display.

Thus, the length of the ballpoint pen is 140 mm.

Conclusion:

The length of the ballpoint pen is 140 mm.
