Answer:

The observed reading will be 4.54 cm.

Explanation:

The main scale reading of the vernier calipers = 4.5 cm

The least count of the vernier calipers = 0.01 cm

4th division of the vernier scale coincides with the main scale. So the vernier scale reading = 4

Observed reading can be found using the following equation:

Observed reading = main scale reading + ( vernier scale reading × least count)

Observed reading = 4.5 + (4 × 0.01)

                               = 4.54 cm
