, ROLE OF PHYSICS IN
MEASUREMENTS
Science and engineering based on measurement and
comparisons. Thus ,we need rules about how things are measured
and compared. And we need experiments to establish the units
for those measurements and comparisons.

The purpose of physics is to design and conduct those
experiments.

, Measuring
things
We measure each quantity once, we have setup a
standard –say for length - we
