Is there any measurement device that does not use electromagnetism to perform the measurement?
I performed a literature search and I did not find any paper on the topic.
My bathroom scale uses electromagnetism.
Using my ruler requires touch and light.
All watches I know use springs or electric current.
Is there any measurement device that does NOT use electromagnetism?
Also all quantum devices use electromagnetism. None uses gravity and none the nuclear forces.
Why is this the case? Are there any papers or book chapters on this?
