Thermometer: A device used to measure the

temperature of gaseous, liquid or solid matter or of a

chemical reaction such as fire. Temperature
measurement is important to a wide range of
activities, including industry, scientific research, and
health care. In health care, thermometers are used to
measure the A tape measure or measuring tape is a

A tape measure or measuring tape is a

flexible ruler and used to measure distance.
It consists of a ribbon of cloth, plastic, fibre glass, or
metal strip with linear-measurement markings. It is a
common measuring tool. Its design allows for a measure
of great length to be easily carried in pocket or toolkit and
permits one to measure around curves or corners

A protractor is a measuring instrument, typically made

of transparent plastic or glass, for measuring angles.
Most protractors measure angles in degrees. Radian-
scale protractors measure angles in radians. Most

protractors are divided into 180 equal parts.

A ruler, sometimes called a rule or line

gauge, is a device used
in geometry and technical drawing, as well as
the engineering and construction industries,
to measure or draw straight lines.[1
 A clock is an instrument used to measure,
keep, and indicate time. The clock is one of the oldest
human inventions, meeting the need to measure intervals
of time shorter than the natural units: the day, the lunar
month, and the year. Devices operating on several
physical processes have been used over the millennia.

A pair of compasses, also known as a compass, is

a technical drawing instrument that can be used for
inscribing circles or arcs. As dividers, they can also
be used as tools to measure distances, in particular
on maps. Compasses can be used for
mathematics, drafting, navigation and other
purposes

A sound level meter is used for acoustic measurements. It

is commonly a hand-held instrument with a microphone.
The diaphragm of the microphone responds to changes in
air pressure caused by sound waves. That is why the
instrument is sometimes referred to as a Sound Pressure
Level Meter

A light meter is a device used to measure the

amount of light. In photography, a light meter
is often used to determine the proper
exposure for a photograph.
