We need two readings. One is Main scale reading and the other is vernier scale reading.
Main scale reading will be read on the main scale.
We need an indicator to read it. Right?
The marking ie zero of the vernier is that indicator. So the reading on the main scale which has been just crossed by zero of the vernier is taken as Main scale reading.
Now to get VSR, we need vernier scale coincidence. How do we get this?
Any one of the divisions of the vernier will be found coincided with some divisions marked on the main scale. We don't worry about that main scale division but we concentrate only on the vernier scale division. This is VSC
This VSC is to be multiplied by least count. So VSC x LC gives the VSR
Now MSR + VSR gives the accurate reading.
Tsr=msr+vsr*l.c
Because the secondary scale, which gave the calipers it accuracy, was designed by the French mathematician Pierre Vernier.
vernier calliper scale. give us reading upto two places right side from decimal
I guess it is found by vernier as it works on vernier theory -Manasa
Vernier Caliper are made with different materials even plastic vernier calipers are also available in market however generally stainless steel is used in making of vernier calipers
Vernier calipers are in use in machine shops throughout the world. Of course, they are gradually being replaced by digital calipers but, plenty are still in use in England.
Vernier calipers is more convenient to use compared to the external and internal calipers because vernier caliper by its own could be used as external and internal calipers. When using Vernier caliper you can identify the measurement withtout using ruler, meter stick etc. but the internal and external calipers rely on measuring tools to know the exact measurement... (*Ivan Richmond Jumawan*).
The modern vernier caliper reads to thousandths of an inch
Vernier Calipers are instruments that are used measure length. It is an instrument that provides a digit of accuracy.
Slide calipers was invented by the French mathematician Pierre Vernier.It was known as Vernier calipers.

Vernier calipers.
Yes, they are handy instruments.
