The following diagrams (Fig. 5) show the use of a vernier caliper under three different situations. Study the diagrams carefully and note down the vernier readings in each case.
(a) Measuring the diameter of the rod
(b) Measuring Internal diameter of a cavity
(c) Measuring depth of a cavity

उत्तर
(a) Measuring the diameter of the rod
(b) Measuring Internal diameter of a cavity
(c) Measuring the depth of a cavity
Least count of vernier caliper = 0.01 cm
(i) Main scale reading = 5.5 cm
Vernier scale division coinciding with main scale = 6 Vernier scale reading = 6 × 0.01 cm = 0.06 cm
Diameter of rod = 5.5 + 0.06 = 5.56 cm
(ii) Main scale reading = 1.6 cm
Vernier scale division coinciding with main scale = 5
Vernier scale reading = 5 × 0.01 cm = 0.05 cm
Internal diameter of a cavity = 1.6 + 0.05 = 1.65 cm
(iii) Main scale reading = 3.1 cm
Vernier scale division coinciding with main scale = 5 Vernier scale reading = 5 × 0.01 cm = 0.05 cm
Depth of a cavity = 3.1 + 0.05 = 3.15 cm
