Repeatable observations and measurements determine what is properly termed science.

These two measurements determine the energy deposited in the crystal in each interaction, but also give information about what kind of particle caused the event.

"We just wanted to take measurements to determine the concentrations at that site."

The relevant fact is that measurements determine probability measures on the outcome space:

The latter measurement determines how large a stairway can be unfolded and extended in the space available.

The measurements determine whether the soil is strong enough to build a road on.

Separate measurements determine the velocity of the flow.

Precise measurements of a brown dwarf determined the failed star is more massive than originally expected.

It involves the measurement of the stone tools to determine their typology, function and the technology involved.

These measurements will determine the angular scale of the sound horizon for galaxies at different redshifts.
