What are calipers used for?

Usually, calipers. an instrument for measuring thicknesses and internal or external diameters inaccessible to a scale, consisting usually of a pair of adjustable pivoted legs.2.any of various calibrated instruments for measuring thicknesses or distances between surfaces, usually having a screwed or sliding adjustable piece. Compare vernier caliper.3.thickness or depth, as of paper or a tree.4.Usually, calipers. the pincers of an earwig.5.Automotive. the part of a disc-brake assembly that straddles the disc and presses the brake pads against it.6.a similar part used with a hand brake on a bicycle.
The caliper measures thicknesses and internal or external diameters inaccessible to a scale, consisting usually of a pair of adjustable pivoted legs.

How can I calibrate a micrometer without the use of gage blocks. Any adjustments on the device?

Functions of micrometer?

Micrometer is a caliper used for measuring small distances.

Another Answer

In British English, a micrometer is an instrument used to measure small distances.

In US English, it can mean the same thing, but it can also mean a unit of measurement of one-millionth of a meter (in British English, one-millionth of a metre is spelt, 'micrometre').

What are caliper pins?

What are caliper pins

The caliper pins hold the caliper in place and allow it to slide to make up for pad wear.

Gauge pressure and absolute pressure?

Gauge pressure is what you get when you take the reading from your tire pressure gauge. Absolute pressure is the pressure inside your tires plus the atmospheric pressure, which is roughly; 14.7 psi, 101.3 kPa (kilo-Pascals), or one atmosphere. Absolute pressure measures all of the pressure on your tires, inside and out, whereas gauge simply measures the pressure inside the tire.

What would you use to measure the volume of a marble?

The easiest way is to get a small measuring cup with fractions of ounces and fill it to the one-ounce mark with water or another suitable liquid. Then drop the marble in and subtract 1 ounce from the new measurement. If you can't find a small measuring cup, use a large one and use more marbles, then divide your results by the number of marbles used. If you can't do that, then somehow measure the diameter of the marble, divide it by 2 to find the radius, and plug it into this formula: (4 . pi . r3) / 3 = volume of sphere. Answer: Obviously the use of a graduated cylinder wuld make the process more accurate than using a measuring cup as it is marked in 1 ml increments. Alternately the marble can be weigher and the indicated mass multiplied by the typical specific gravity of glass (2.58) to give the volume

How do you read a measuring tape?

It depends upon what kind of tape it is, how the graduations are sized, what tension the tape is held at, and (for a surveyor's tape) whether the first foot or dm is forward or backward from the zero point.
