Calibración

The video tutorial explains the importance of calibration in ensuring the accuracy of measuring instruments. It highlights the necessity of using reliable reference measurements to perform accurate indirect measurements, such as determining weight through the elongation of a spring.

Why are reliable reference measurements important?

• To increase the speed of measurements

• To eliminate the need for calibration

• To ensure the accuracy of measuring instruments

• To reduce the cost of measurements

What is the primary purpose of calibration?

• To avoid using reference measurements

• To simplify the measurement process

• To ensure accurate indirect measurements

• To perform direct measurements

What does calibration help to adjust in a measuring instrument?

• The color of the instrument

• The size of the instrument

• The accuracy of the instrument

• The speed of measurement

How does calibration contribute to measurement accuracy?

• By reducing the time taken for measurements

• By making the instrument more durable

• By ensuring the instrument is correctly adjusted

• By eliminating the need for reference measurements

Which of the following is an example of an indirect measurement?

• Counting objects manually

• Using a thermometer to measure temperature

• Reading weight through spring elongation

• Using a ruler to measure length
