🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between pitch and threads per inch (TPI) • Typical standard pitch used on common micrometer screws • How finer pitch (more TPI) affects measurement resolution

💭 Think About

• If you want a micrometer to measure very small changes in length, would you use fewer threads per inch or more threads per inch on the screw? • Think about common machine screws: are micrometer screws usually coarser (like a wood screw) or much finer? • Which of these options would most likely give you movements on the order of thousandths of an inch per turn?

✅ Before You Answer

• Recall or look up the standard micrometer screw pitch used in most inch-reading micrometers. • Confirm which choice would give 0.025 inch per revolution or similar when combined with a 25-division thimble scale. • Eliminate any options that seem too coarse to give precise readings in 0.001 inch steps.
