उत्तर
Diagram of vernier callipers:
Main parts and their functions:
Main scale: It is used to measure length correct up to 1 mm.
Vernier scale: It helps to measure length correct up to 0.1 mm.
Outside jaws: It helps to measure length of a rod, diameter of a sphere, external diameter of a hollow cylinder.
Inside jaws: It helps to measure the internal diameter of a hollow cylinder or pipe.
Strip: It helps to measure the depth of a beaker or a bottle.

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.
What is the backlash error?
Name the measuring employed to measure the diameter of a needle.
Consider the following case where the zero of vernier scale and the zero of the main scale are clearly seen. If L.C. of the vernier calipers is 0.01 cm, write the zero error and zero correction of the following.
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
