Is an outside caliper more precise than a ruler?
It depends how accurately you can read the scale. A ruler would only be accurate to 1 mm. If the caliper has a vernier scale it should be ten times better
How do you take reading in travelling microscope by using the vernier scale reading from 0.6 to 1.0?
Their Vernier scale consists of two readings; the Vernier scale and the main scale. One can read that by the first line is the main scale and the next line is the Vernier reading.
What unit of measurement is used for DIMM read and write times?
nanoseconds
Why there is need of standard units of measurement?
Standard units of measurement allow other people to know what you mean when you use those units. To make this recipe you need four ounces of butter. OK, we know how much that is. If we had no standard units, it would be very hard to accurately convey exactly how much butter the recipe requires. And then what would your cookies taste like?
Differentiate the two system of measurement?
A measurement must be quantitative, as the result is a quantity. A qualitative property is something that can't be measured, such as your opinion of someone, or of a book you have read. Absolutely incorrect. In science you have both qualitative and quantitative measurements. A quantitative measurement is just as it sounds, measuring the quantity of something. A qualitative measurement systematically measures the quality of a system. Temperature is a qualitative measurement of heat. Where as heat is a quantitative measurement of energy. You can't "add" temperature but you can "add" heat to a system by increasing the temperature or the mass of the system. Mass is a quantitative measurement, where as weight is a qualitative measurement of the force of gravity on a mass and is dependent on where it is measured (gravity). If you can "add" or "subtract" something it is quantitative. If you can only "change" it it is qualitative. Thus it is scientifically incorrect to say "adding weight", you must say "increasing weight".
Where on the vernier scale would you read to obtain the vernier scale reading?
where on the vernier caliper would you read to obtain the vernier scale reading
Where on the vernier caliper would you read to obtain the main scale reading?
To obtain the main scale reading on a vernier caliper, you would read the measurement value aligned with the zero mark on the main scale.
Where on the vernier caliper would you read to obtain the vernier scale reading?
Find the marks that line up exactly (or as exactly as possible and then interpolate). see the Sources and related links below for a page and a video explaining in detail.
Advantages and disadvantages of vernier caliper?
Advantages of the Vernier caliper include being able to determine very small measurements; being able to measure depth; and the ability to measure outer and inner measurements at the same time. Disadvantages include learning to read the results correctly and the lack of accuracy compared to other methods.
Which is more accurate an ordinary plastic ruler or a vernier caliper?
The vernier caliper is more accurate that a plastic ruler. That's because the caliper is designed to be used and effectively read to measure small distances. And it does this better than a "regular" ruler because it has a vernier scale built into it. It's like an "amplified ruler" attached to the device that has increased accuracy. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the vernier caliper and to the one on the vernier scale. Check out the pictures and skim the details. You should be able to pick it up with a bit of thought.
What is least count of vernier caliper?
Least count of vernier caliper= 1 MSD - 1 VSD. Main scale usually would have 1 mm as the minimum division. Such 9 divisions, ie 9 mm would be divided into ten equal parts in the vernier. So VSD = 0.9 mm Hence the least count = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 mm If the same is to be given in centimetre, then it will be 0.01 cm.
What is burner caliper?
I think this is meant to be "Vernier Caliper". It is an instrument used to measure objects to limits to fine to read by rule. It consists of two parts. ' 1) A metal bar engraved as a rule, with a blade at right angles to one end, so 'L-'-shaped, and ' 2) A block with a similar blade, sliding on the fixed (Part 1), so forming a pair of adjustable jaws brought into contact with the item to be measured. On the slide is another scale, and this is the Vernier part: if it does not have this, the instrument is a caliper but not a Vernier Caliper. This Vernier scale is engraved in such a way that it has a compounding effect on the adjacent fixed rule, so magnifying the measurements to a readable equivalent. ' The inch-series vernier can read to 1/1000", the metric version to (I think), 0.01mm. I stand to be corrected on that last because I have a metric caliper but it is digital, not vernier!

The uses of upper jaw lower jaw and blade in vernier caliper?
The lower jaw is used for taking outside measurements. As on the outside of a shaft. The upper jaw is used for taking inside measurements as in the inside of a pipe or tube. The 'blade' is for reading the measurement. Dial calipers are easier to read.
What is the Smallest accurate measurement on a metric micrometer?
Most metric micrometers have graduations of .01mm (.001"), and some read to .001mm or nearly .0001". Depending on the application, digital and vernier types are available in both. See "LS Starrett Company" or Mitutoyo America Corporation.
Why is a micrometer better than a vernier caliper?
They are not. You use the most suitable instrument for the task in hand. Some people find verniers more difficult to read unless there is a digital readout.
