Which of the following statements best explains why we don\'t create micrometers

Question

Which of the following statements best explains why we don't create micrometers with 10 times the discrimination they presently have?

a) A micrometer with this type of precision would be much too difficult to read, therefore increasing the amount of errors

b) The diminutive size of the device would make it impractical to make measurements

c) While gaining precision, the micrometer would have a much smaller range and be useful in very few applications

d) The technology does not currently exist to increase the discrimination beyond its present level

Explanation / Answer

The statements which are given in option B and C explains clearly about this micrometer issue. Because when we increase the accuracy size its leads to impractical. They leads to the calculations very complicated. And most of the applications need not to required that much of precision. Most of the applications requires small amont of precision. There tolerence limit is with in the currently available system.
