The precision gap between students and professors hits different in physics lab! On the left, a student using a sophisticated micrometer (designed to measure tiny distances with high accuracy) still manages an 8% error. Meanwhile, the professor on the right achieves godlike 1% accuracy with... a basic ruler? That's the ultimate flex in measurement science. The irony is delicious - expensive precision tools in inexperienced hands vs. basic tools wielded by someone who's been measuring things since before you were born. Every physics student feels this in their soul when the professor casually eyeballs a measurement and somehow gets it more accurate than your three attempts with calibrated equipment.
