🔍 Key Concepts

• How to read an inch micrometer: sleeve (barrel) scale gives tenths and twenty‑fifths of an inch; thimble scale gives thousandths of an inch • On the sleeve, each numbered division (0, 1, 2, 3) is 0.100 inch, and each short unnumbered line is 0.025 inch • On the thimble, each division between 0 and 25 is 0.001 inch, read at the sleeve’s reference line

💭 Think About

• On Figure II, what is the last full 0.100-inch mark that is completely visible to the left of the thimble edge? Is there an additional 0.025-inch mark visible after that? • Which thimble line exactly lines up with the horizontal reference line on the sleeve? How many thousandths of an inch does that represent? • Once you have the sleeve value (0.100s plus any 0.025 increment) and the thimble value, what total do you get when you add them together?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you are only using Figure II and reading from left to right on the sleeve before looking at the thimble • Confirm the sleeve reading falls between 0.300 and 0.400 inch, matching the style of the answer choices • Double‑check that the thimble line you use is the one that exactly coincides with the sleeve’s reference line; small misalignment will change the answer by 0.001 inch
