Measurement 2 – LearnITbyTests

1. Mention the Main difference between an engineers caliper and Vernier caliper?

Engineer caliper has only one pair of jaw but Vernier caliper two pairs of jaws (inside and outside)

Engineer caliper is more portable than a Vernier caliper

Engineer caliper has no millimeter scale while a Vernier caliper has a millimeter scale to determine the readings

all of the above

Question 1 of 20

2. Zero error in a Vernier calipers occurs when?

When the zero mark of the main scale does not coincide with zero mark of the Vernier scale

When the zero mark of the main scale coincides with the zero mark of the Vernier scale

When the zero mark of the main scale does not coincide with the zero mark a ruler's scale

All of the above

Question 8 of 20

9. EXPLAIN the zero error found in a micrometer screw gauge?

Arises when the zero mark of the thimble scale coincides with center line of the sleeve scale.

Arises when the zero mark of the thimble scale does not coincide exactly with the centerline of the sleeve scale.

Arises when the zero mark of the Main scale does not coincide exactly with the zero mark of the Vernier scale.

None of the above.

Question 9 of 20

10. How do you correct the zero error in a Vernier calipers measurement?

By adding the zero error to the measurement taken if the error is negative

By subtracting the zero error to the measurement taken if the error is positive

Assuming the zero error to the negligent

no idea
