  2. Vernier scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_scale

    The standard for a caliper is usually a constant of 0.02 Vernier caliper scale with the normal 0.02 vernier constant, showing measurement of object at 19.44 mm to two decimal places. The use of the vernier scale is shown on a vernier caliper which measures the internal and the external diameters of an object.

  3. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    The calipers in the diagram show a primary reading on the metric scale of about 2.475 cm (2.4 cm read from the main scale plus about 0.075 cm from the vernier scale). Calipers often have a "zero point error": meaning that the calipers do not read 0.000 cm when the jaws are closed.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_Count

    The dieter's problem: this scale can only resolve weight changes of 0.2 lbs, even though the digital display looks as if it could show 0.1 In the science of measurement , the least count of a measuring instrument is the smallest value in the measured quantity that can be resolved on the instrument's scale.

  5. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

    Vernier micrometer reading 5.783 ± 0.001 mm, comprising 5.5 mm on main screw lead scale, 0.28 mm on screw rotation scale, and 0.003 mm added from vernier. Some micrometers are provided with a vernier scale on the sleeve in addition to the regular graduations. These permit measurements within 0.001 millimetre to be made on metric micrometers ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Vernier

    Vernier caliper scales; main at top, vernier at bottom. It reads 3.58 mm ± 0.02 mm by adding 3.00 mm (left red mark) on the fixed main scale to vernier 0.58 mm (right red mark). The main scale reading is the rightmost graduation that is to the left of the zero on the vernier scale. The vernier reading is found by locating the best aligned ...

  9. Vernier acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_acuity

    Vernier acuity is measured by asking participants to judge the offset between two parallel line segments with both eyes (binocular vision) or with each eye individually (monocular vision). [10] Vernier measures in infants and non-verbal children can be done using the preferential-looking technique [11] or by electrophysiological techniques. [12 ...
