Question
which of the following micrometers is unique in the way that the observer reads the results?
outside micrometer
hub micrometer
blade micrometer
depth micrometer
Outside, hub, and blade micrometers measure linear dimensions in a relatively similar way based on the alignment of main - scale and thimble - scale markings for external or specific part features. A depth micrometer, however, measures depth, and its reading involves understanding the zero - setting and the position of the spindle relative to the reference surface in a way that is distinct from the others in terms of the orientation and the nature of the measurement being depth rather than a simple external or part - feature dimension.
