Answer:
A vernier scale is a visual aid to take an accurate measurement reading between two graduation markings on a linear scale by using mechanical interpolation; thereby increasing resolution and reducing measurement uncertainty by using vernier acuity to reduce human estimation error.

- A vernier scale is a visual aid to take an accurate measurement reading between two graduation markings on a linear scale by using mechanical interpolation; thereby increasing resolution and reducing measurement uncertainty by using vernier acuity to reduce human estimation error.
- Purpose: Measuring more precisely than could be done unaided when reading a uniformly divided straight or circular measurement scale
- Creator: Pierre Vernier
Year invented: 1631
- Uncertainty :The Vernier caliper is an instrument that allows you measure lengths much more accurate than the metric ruler. The smallest increment in the vernier caliper you will be usingis ( )mm = 0.02mm = 0.002cm. Thus, the uncertainty is ∆x = ( )0.002 cm = 0.001 cm.
