Inphysics andengineering,measurement is the activity of comparingphysical quantities of real-worldobjects andevents. Established standard objects and events are used asunits, and the measurement results in a given number for the relationship between the item under study and the referenced unit of measurement.Measuring instruments are the means by which this translation is made.
