The document contains questions about measuring various quantities using different instruments like a micrometer screw gauge, vernier callipers, and a simple pendulum. It asks students to identify the thickness of a glass panel and diameter of ball bearings based on diagrams. It also asks them to state which instruments are most suitable for accurately measuring the thickness of cloth and internal diameter of a pole. Finally, it asks students to define the quantities measured by different instruments and explain how to accurately measure the period of a simple pendulum.

The diagram shows a simple pendulum.

A B The bob of the pendulum was pulled to position A and then was released. The period of the pendulum was found to be 1.2 s. a. How long did it take the pendulum bob to swing from A to B? 0.3 s b. Explain briefly how the period could be accurately measured. using a stopwatch to measure time taken for 20 oscillations and divide it by 20 to give period. Repeat procedure and calculate the average of these two measurements. [2] [1]
