उत्तर

If the zero of the circular scale remains below the line of graduation then it is called positive zero error. When there is a positive zero error, then the instrument reads more than the actual reading. Therefore in order to get the correct reading, the zero error should always be subtracted from the observed reading.

A vernier callipers has its main scale graduated in mm and 10 divisions on its vernier scale are equal in length to 9 mm. When the two jaws are in contact, the zero of the vernier scale is ahead of the zero of the main scale and the 3rd division of the vernier

scale coincides with a main scale division.

Find : (i) The least count and

         (ii) The zero error of the vernier callipers.
