Question

please answer this questionwhat is zero error in Physics ​

Answer 1

It is a type of error in which an instrument gives a reading when the true reading at that time is zero.

Answer 2

hey friend

here is ur answer

Zero reading

• Before taking any measurement it is good to practice to close the jaws or faces of the instrument to make sure that the reading is zero.
• If it is not then note the reading.
• This reading is called zero reading.

• Zero reading is of 2 types

      * Positive reading

      * Negative reading.

a) Positive Zero reading

• If the zero is on the vernier scale is to the right of the main scale , then the error is said to be positive zero error.
• The zero reading should be subtracted from the reading which is measured.

b) Negative zero reading

• If the zero on the vernier scale is to the left of the main scale......
