Seasoned engineers are good at estimating physical values without using tools. Therefore, you need to begin developing a “feel” for the sizes of various physical quantities. This exercise is intended to help you develop this ability. Using the table below, first estimate the dimensions of the given objects. Next measure, or look up, the actual dimensions of the objects, and compare them to your estimated values. How close are your estimations? Do you have a “feel” for units of length yet?
