What are the technical limits to measurement with the vernier caliper and micrometer?

A standard Micrometer using the Metric system has a limitation of measuring to within 0.01 (one hundredth of a millimeter)
But micrometers provided with a vernier scale on the sleeve in addition to the regular graduations, permit measurements to within 0.001 millimetre to be made on metric micrometers, or 0.0001 inches on inch-system micrometers.

What is Least count of vernier calliper and micrometer gauge?
LC FOR VERNIER CALIPER-0.1mm LC FOR MICROMETER -0.01 mm L.C- NO OF SMALLEST DIVISION ON MAIN SCALE ------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL NO OF DIVISION ON VERNIER SCALE
What are the difference between meter rule vernier calipers and micrometer screw gauge?
there is a big different between the vernier caliper and micro meter caliper,the vernier caliper they can use the outside and inside measurement while the micro meter caliper it's just only use outside measurement..
Reading accuracy of vernier caliper?
A micrometer is more accurate but it is only suitable for very small objects. For example, you could not measure the length of a credit card to any degree of accuracy using a standard micrometer.
Who is the inventor of the vernier caliper?
It is not known for certain but vernier callipers were found in a Greek wreck where the ship was dated to the 6th Century BC.
What is the smallest graduation on a inch micrometer with a vernier scale?
.001
Why hand micrometer conforms to the principles of alignment and a vernier caliper does not?
micrometer conforms to abbe's principle because the graduations are located along the same axis as the measurement while vernier caliper does not because the graduations are not on the same axis as the measurement.
Why is a vernier caliper used to measure length?
Vernier calipers are used to measure length when quite accurate measurement is required, but not such accuracy as to require a micrometer.
What is more accurate in measuring the density of an object the vernier caliper or the micrometer caliper?
micrometer is more occurate.
Would you gain using the micrometer instead of the vernier caliper to measure the diameter of the rod?
yes,probably we will get accurate measurement.
How do you measure the width of a pencil?
A vernier caliper would be a good way, unless you need a more accurate measurement, in which case I might use a micrometer caliper.
What is the difference between Screw Gauge and Vernier Caliper?
*Micrometer have a rotary handle and whereas vernier have a slider. *Micrometer is for measuring diameters while vernier is for measuring inside & outside diameter as well as depth. *Least Count of Vernier Caliper is 0.02mm *Least Count of Micrometer is 0.01mm
What you i use to measure the width of a penny?
Micrometer or vernier caliper
What the apparatus that can be used to measure the diameter of a copper wire?
vernier-caliper
What is a conclusion about micrometer and vernier caliper?
In case for micrometer, principle of pitch is used. Least count could be even micro meter But in vernier caliper, difference of main scale division and vernier scale division is the principle Least count could be 0.02 mm
Does the level of accuracy obtained from using a vernier caliper different from other measuring tool?
It is less than a micrometer but greater than a non vernier caliper or ruler.
Does the level of accuracy obtained from using a vernier caliper differ from other measuring tools?

What is the advantage in measuring with vernier caliper and the micrometer?
My mooom and the advantage in meausurung with vernier caliper and the micro meter is grams mass length volume and all that measuring stuff
