🔍 Key Concepts

• How to read an outside micrometer: add the sleeve (barrel) reading to the thimble reading • Each major line on the sleeve scale is typically 0.025 inch on a standard inch micrometer • The thimble scale usually reads in thousandths (0.001 inch) and you pick the graduation that lines up with the reference line

💭 Think About

• First, on figure I, how many full 0.025-inch divisions can you clearly see to the left of the thimble edge on the sleeve? Convert that to a decimal inch value. • Next, on the thimble of figure I, which graduation line is exactly aligned with the horizontal reference line on the sleeve? What is that value in thousandths of an inch? • After you find both values, what do you get when you add the sleeve value and the thimble value together, and which choice is closest to that sum?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are counting only the last fully visible sleeve division to the left of the thimble edge; do not include any partially covered line. • Confirm that you are reading the correct thimble line – the one that best lines up with the reference line, not the one just above or below it. • After adding the two parts, check that your final value has three decimal places in inches and matches one of the given options.
