TELEMETER
(for models with telemeter scale)
The telemeter can provide a rough indica tion of the distance to the source of
l
light and sound.
The telemet er ind ic at es the di stan ce from your location to an ob je ct that
l
emits both light and sound. For example, it c an indicate the distance to the
plac e where lightnin g struck by mea suring the time e lapsed af ter you see a
flash of lightning until you hear the sound.
A flash of lightning reache s you almos t immediately w hile the sound travels
l
to you at a speed of 0. 33 km /s econd. The distanc e to the sourc e of the light
and sound can be calculated on the basis of this dif ference.
The telemeter scale is so graduated that the sound travels at a speed of 1 km
l
in 3 seconds.*
*Under the condition of temperature of 20°C(68°F).
Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
“18 0” (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 job s = 2700 jobs /hour
CAUTION
The telemeter provide s only a r ough indic ation of the distance to the
plac e wher e ligh tn in g struc k, and there fo re , the i nd ic ation cannot
be used as the gui de lin e to avo id the da nger of lightn ing. It sho uld
als o be noted tha t th e sp ee d of the sound diff er s depe nding on the
temperature of the a tmosphere where it travels.
