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:

  • 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.

Temperature measurements are based on the transfer of heat between the sensor of a measuring device (such as an ordinary thermometer or the gasket of a thermocouple) and the medium whose temperature is to be measured. Once the sensor or thermometer is brought into contact with the medium, the sensor quickly receives (or loses, if warmer) heat and reaches thermal equilibrium with the medium. At that point the medium and the sensor are at the same temperature. The time required for thermal equilibrium to be established can vary from a fraction of a second to several minutes. Due to its small size and high conductivity it can be assumed that the sensor is at a uniform temperature at all times, and Newton's cooling law is applicable. Thermocouples are commonly used to measure the temperature of gas streams. The characteristics of the thermocouple junction and the gas stream are such that λ = hA/mc 0.02s-1. Initially, the thermocouple junction is at a temperature Ti and the gas stream at…
