PHYSICS:

1) Please Anyone explain to me what's a Parallax action and HOW to explain it (if incase i wanted to write it in the lense question)
2) You know how in Summer 2005 and winter 2008 there is this table with Quantity Measured and you need to underline one of the recorded values !! How do we do that ?? Is there a way to solve rather than guessing ??
EXAMPLE:

Quantity Measured Recorded Values
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Weight of an 0.7 N
empty 2250 cm^3 7.0 N
glass Beaker 70 N
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The volume of 0.6 cm^3
one sheet of this 6.0 cm^3
examination paper 60 cm^3

And so on .....

Parallax error is the error that occurs when readings are not taken properly due to a different angle of view or different height....so if the reading on a ruler says 10cm, due to seeing it from like the extreme left, it will seem like its 9.5cm or so.....and that is parallax error
