Worked Example 3.3.1:
What is the reading of the vernier calliper as shown in the figure below?
Solution
Reading of the main scale (before 0 on the Vernier scale) = 10.0 cm
Reading of vernier scale = 2
Reading of vernier scale × accuracy of vernier calliper
= 2 × 0.01 cm = 0.02 cm
Final reading = Main scale + Vernier scale
10.0 cm + 0.02 cm = 10.02 cm
