Question 496General Subjects - Assistant Engineer
70% to passThe most accurate method of measuring the setting of an inside caliper is to use a/an _______________.
Athread micrometer
Bengineer's scale
Cdial indicator
Doutside micrometer
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) outside micrometer. An outside micrometer is the most accurate method of measuring the setting of an inside caliper. This is because an outside micrometer can directly measure the distance between the caliper's jaws, which is the most precise way to determine the caliper's setting. The other options, such as a thread micrometer, engineer's scale, or dial indicator, are not as well-suited for this specific measurement task.
