    This document appears to be a worksheet from a physics class asking students to answer questions about physics concepts. The questions ask students to: 1) Describe the methods physicists use to study problems such as experiments, observations, recording data, and using data to create models. 2) Provide two examples of applications that resulted from physicists' work like telecommunications satellites, telescopes, and computers. 3) Explain that measuring length in millimeters is more precise than centimeters because millimeters are a smaller unit of measurement. The document also provides the key answers to the questions.

    Understanding Physics Concepts
    1. Physicists do experiments, make observations, record data, and use the data to create models
    or theories to answer questions.
    2. Possible answers include telecommunications satellites, telescopes, and computers.
    3. Because the millimeter is the smaller unit, the length of the tabletop measured in millimeters is
    more precise because the measurement relies less on estimating.
    4. 88.5 cm, 88.40 cm
    5. a. 4
    b. 4
    c. 2
    6. Precision is the degree of exactness used in measuring a quantity. Accuracy is the extent to
    which the measured value of a quantity agrees with the real value.
