The R.M.S value is slightly greater than the Ra value for same profile. The
ratio of two depends upon the shape of the profile. In general R.M.S value is
equal to 1.11 times the Ra value.
Rq= 1.11 Ra
Observations:
1) Ra value of Standard Specimen= 2.94 m
2) Measuring force= 4 mN
3) Stylus tip radius= 5 m

Conclusion:
Hence, we have studied surface roughess measurement, various devices used
for surface roughness measurement and evaluation of surface roughness. The
results of measuremnet are given in observation table.
