Card 1Units of measurement

What is a unit in measurement?

Answer

A unit is a fixed amount used to measure length. Handspan is an example of a unit, but it is a non-standard unit because it differs from person to person.

Card 2माप की इकाइयाँ

मापन की इकाई क्या है?

Answer

इकाई (unit) लंबाई मापने के लिए प्रयोग की जाने वाली एक निश्चित मात्रा है। हाथ की लम्बाई इकाई का एक उदाहरण है, लेकिन यह एक गैर-मानक इकाई है क्योंकि यह व्यक्ति-व्यक्ति में भिन्न होती है।

Card 3Non-standard units

Why are handspan, arm length, foot, fist, and finger widths not standard units?

Answer

They are body-based units, so their sizes differ from person to person. The same object can get different measurements when different people measure it.

Card 4अमानक इकाई

हस्तविस्तार, भुजा की लंबाई, पैर, मुट्ठी और उंगली की चौड़ाई मानक इकाइयाँ क्यों नहीं हैं?

Answer

ये शरीर आधारित इकाइयाँ हैं, इसलिए इनका आकार व्यक्ति-व्यक्ति में भिन्न होता है। एक ही वस्तु को अलग-अलग लोगों द्वारा मापने पर अलग-अलग माप प्राप्त हो सकते हैं।

Card 5Measurement using body parts

How did Deepa measure the table in handspans?

Answer

The table was compared with handspans placed along its length. Different students got different counts because their handspans were different sizes.

Card 6शरीर के अंगों का उपयोग करके माप

दीपा ने हाथ की चौड़ाई में मेज को कैसे मापा?

Answer

तालिका की तुलना इसकी लंबाई के साथ रखे गए हाथ के फैलाव से की गई थी। अलग-अलग छात्रों को अलग-अलग गिनती मिली क्योंकि उनके हाथ के फैलाव अलग-अलग आकार के थे।

Card 7Need for standard units

What did the different handspan counts show about measuring with body parts?

Answer

They showed that body parts are not reliable for exact measurement. Standard tools like scales and measuring tapes are needed for correct and matching results.

Card 8मानक इकाइयों की आवश्यकता

शरीर के अंगों से मापने के बारे में विभिन्न हाथ की गिनती क्या दर्शाती है?

Answer

उन्होंने दिखाया कि सटीक माप के लिए शरीर के अंग विश्वसनीय नहीं हैं। सही और मिलान करने वाले परिणामों के लिए तराजू और मापने वाले टेप जैसे मानक उपकरणों की आवश्यकता होती है।
