Chapter 32, Problem 1A, Read the decimal-inch vernier caliper measurement for this setting.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The measurement in the given Vernier scale.

Answer to Problem 1A

  2.605 Inch.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Mathematics For Machine Technology, Chapter 32, Problem 1A

Calculation:

To obtain the main scale reading: Look at the image, 2.6 inch is to the immediate left of the zero on the Vernier scale. Hence, the main scale reading is 2.6 inch.

To obtain the Vernier scale reading: Look closely at the image for an alignment of the scale lines of the main scale and Vernier scale. In the image, the aligned line corresponds to 5. Hence, the Vernier scale reading is 0.001 cm.

In order to obtain the final measurement reading, add the main scale reading and Vernier scale reading together. This will give 2.6 inch + 0.005 inch =2.605 inch.

Hence, final measurement reading, from given image is found 2.605 inch.
