Measuring
There are several systems of measurement. English Cgs (very small) Avoirdupois (ballistics) SI (metric)
We will be using English and metric (SI)
Measuring Length with a ruler
For length we use a ruler for lengths under a foot or a tape measure for longer lengths.
Tape Measure
Once you can read a ruler you certainly can use a tape measure which is used in many different careers and activities.

Measuring lengths with a caliper or micrometer
For smaller lengths we use vernier calipers or very small lengths (thicknesses) we use a micrometer
