🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between instruments that measure humidity vs. distance • Common navigation distance-measuring tools used on the bridge and on deck • What each instrument in the options is normally used for in maritime or general science contexts

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask: Is this typically used for weather, precision length, or range/distance to another object? • Think about which tool an officer on watch would actually use to find the distance to another ship or object visually. • Recall which of these instruments is associated with sextants and visual rangefinding in navigation.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which two instruments (from the options) are related to measuring moisture/humidity, not distance. • Pick out the option that is specifically a rangefinding instrument used with the eye, not a lab or weather instrument. • Confirm that the correct choice is known to be used to measure the distance to another ship or object using angles.
