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.
Purpose: Measuring more precisely than could be done unaided when reading a uniformly divided straight or circular measurement scale .
