Q. The meter that is used to measure the distance moved by the vehicle is known as

a) Ammeter
b) Speedometer
c) Chronometer
d) Odometer

Question from BPSC PT 70, 2024

The correct answer is: d) Odometer

Explanation: An odometer is a device used in vehicles to measure the distance traveled. It records the total distance covered by the vehicle and is typically displayed on the dashboard.

– Ammeter: This measures electric current in a circuit, not distance.
– Speedometer: This measures the speed of the vehicle, not the distance.
– Chronometer: This is a precise timekeeping instrument, unrelated to measuring distance.

Thus, the correct answer is odometer, as it specifically measures the distance moved by the vehicle.
