Level of measurement or scale of measure is a classification that describes the nature of information within the values assigned to variables. [1] Psychologist Stanley Smith Stevens developed the best-known classification with four levels, or scales, of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.
Wheatstone bridge circuit diagram.The unknown resistance R x is to be measured; resistances R 1, R 2 and R 3 are known, where R 2 is adjustable. When the measured voltage V G is 0, both legs have equal voltage ratios: R 2 /R 1 = R x /R 3 and R x = R 3 R 2 /R 1.
Standard National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration rain gauge. A rain gauge (also known as udometer, pluviometer, ombrometer, and hyetometer) is an instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation in a predefined area, over a set period of time.
