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.

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

  • 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 using is (1/50)mm = 0.02mm = 0.002cm. Thus, the uncertainty is ∆x = (1/2)0.002 cm = 0.001 cm.
