What is zero error of screw gauge?

When the anvil and spindle end are brought in contact, the edge of the circular scale should be at the zero of the sleeve (linear scale) and the zero of the circular scale should be opposite to the datum line of the sleeve. If the zero is not coinciding with the datum line, there will be a positive or negative zero error as shown in figure below.

What happens at zero degrees in the kelvin scale?

On the Kelvin scale, absolute zero is 0 degrees Kelvin. On the Celsius scale, absolute zero is −273.15 degrees Celsius.


What is the 'N' on the spring scale?

The N on a spring scale should measure newtons but I'm not 100% sure.


What is absoulte zero in celsius?

Absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as -273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to -459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.


What do you understand by zero error of a measuring instrument?

It is a defect in a measuring device (Vernier Callipers & Screw Gauge) & zero error is caused by an incorrect position of the zero point.
