Physical measurement is carried out to get quantitative information on physical conditions, properties, or relations essential for coordination of activities, efficiency of communication, and understanding of the nature of things in science and engineering and in much of everyday life. Physical measurement instruments are often used to determine physical characteristics in epidemiological research, such as height, weight, blood pressure, exercise capacity, lung volume, and much more. For each characteristic, there are a number of instruments that you can choose from. Browse through this category for various physical measuring instruments available in Zambian stores.
