    I never knew I was using a vernier caliper wrong.
    This is by far one of the most useful tools a person can have. Measures bolt sizes so you can cut the guess work out of trying to find the right socket.
    Useful af.

    If you read the main scale in millimetres, you can just add the vernier reading to it as tenths of a millimetre. 7.5 would be 75 millimetres and 6.4 on the vernier scale would be 0.64 millimetres, which makes the measurement 75.64 millimetres!

    first of all what least count of this vernier in metric system. 50 divi of vernier scale = 49 div of main scale and one division of main scale is equal to 1 mm (0.10cm). hence least count will be 1/50 = 0.02mm or 0.002 cm. Now we analyse each reading.
    No vernier readings comes in decimal but it will always be counted as whole number divisions, like 22, or 45 or 10 etc.The vernier division counts and readings thus will be as under respectively
    Not 2.2 but will be 12
    Not 6.4 but will be 34
    Not 1.4 but will be 09
    Thus readings
    12x0.002 cm = 0.024cm
    34x0.002 cm = 0.068cm
    09x0.002 cm = 0.018cm
    So both reading will be added thus dia of coin will be 2.124 cm (not 2.122), inner dia of tap roll will be 7.568 cm (not 7.564) and depth will be 4.818 cm (not 4.814)

    • @shekharprajapati5311
      @shekharprajapati5311 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      yes sir you are right, because least division on vernier scale measure is 0.02 mm and each line or division is of 0.02 mm so if the 2nd line is matching after 10 on VS then it will be 0.24 so in first example reading will be 21.24mm not 21.22 mm

    This is actually pretty helpful. Still really complicated but it's kind of easy to wrap your head around when you give it a try. I bet I'll be visiting this video a lot in the near future.

  • @mikolajgorski9661
    @mikolajgorski9661 6 ปีที่แล้ว +76

    Sorry, but your measurements are not correct. You have forgotten that vernier scale on your caliper is 0.02 mm not 0.01 mm. So, readings should be 2.124 not 2.122; 7.568 not 7.564; 4.818 not 4.814

  • @mattmillar1456
    @mattmillar1456 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The Vernier scale here has only five small division between each large division and each small division represents an incremental misalignment of an additional TWO one-hundredths of a millimeter. Going into this video I knew nothing about Vernier scales, so I didn't know if I could assume that the small markings were in fact linear divisions of the large markings and not some other weird thing. Maybe it was obvious to other people, but I spent an extra 15 minutes watching some other tutorial just because you guys didn't explicitly put that into words!
    I liked the music though, by the way.

  • @ovajoyd
    @ovajoyd 10 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    In your first example, I would've read the vernier, at that setting, as 21.22mm. I believe that that's how the metric World (perhaps not the US, though) would read it.
    In other words, there is no arithmetic involved - the whole number (21mm) is obvious (on the major scale - the first step) and the fraction ( 0.22mm) which refines the measurement to the nearest 50th of a millimetre, is then 'attached' upon reading the closest approximation on the minor scale.

      Your teachers aren't necessarily wrong, it just depends on the scale being used. Their method works for vernier scales with 10 divisions. Our method will work for *any* vernier scale.

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +gabriel nero ebdani No. I don't understand where you got the factor of 0.02. In this case, working in millimetres, you would multiply 22 by 0.01 (or divide 22 by 100 as there are 100 units on the Vernier Scale) .
      Realistically, there is a simple way to check on this. Look at the scale where the dime is being measured. Does it look like it's close to 21.5? If it was 21.44, the major line would be closer to 21.5 than 21.0.

    • @lisimahus
      @lisimahus 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      well, the confusion arises from the fact that you talk about centimeters, when the vernier you are holding measures everything in millimeters. This is obvious if you look at the smallest measurement possible, which is 0.02 mm, as clearly stated on your vernier caliper. So it measures directly in mm, not cm. Of course, you can convert to centimeters afterwards.

      the increment on the vernier scale is 0.02. so the reading on the vernier scale is ( 2.4/10)×0.1=0.024cm.

    I didn't understand in depth measurement. How it is 1.4 in the lining up

  • @Theeslickness
    @Theeslickness 10 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Thanks I finally understand it. But I think you totally over explained it.
    The vernier number should simply be added on to the first measurement. So 2.1 with 2.2 tacked on is 2.122
    Much easier!

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      That really only works if your caliper has 10 divisions. We tried to be more general than that.

    • @Theeslickness
      @Theeslickness 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      SMUPhysics Oh okay, I assumed there are all made that way. Mine has the 10 divisions as well.

    • @athhud
      @athhud 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      SMUPhysics that doesn’t make any sense at all. It works on any Vernier scale as long as you know your divisions (which in this case is .002 not .001 as implied by the math in the video).

    [Mistake] The precision of Vernier Caliper should be 0.01 cm (0.1 mm).
    In order to obtain reading up to 0.001 cm (0.01 mm) accuracy, Micrometre screw gauge should be used instead.

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      [Not a mistake]. You are probably only familiar with callipers with 10 divisions on the vernier scale. In that case, you would be correct. But this caliper has a finer resolution on the vernier scale and therefore the precision cited is correct.

    • @milosstepanovic336
      @milosstepanovic336 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      SMUPhysics Even though you're right most people (like me) are used to 0.1 vernier scale so this one might seem a bit awkward, I'm in general familiar with 0.01 version of the scale but I simply never used it, not even in school we only mentioned it's existence so for measuring 0.01 I alwayas use micrometer, that's most probably the reason he was confused about this video....
      You actually made only one mistake that I assume no one noticed... when you explained that the depth measured is the same as space betwen the main jaws: you used the wrong part of the jaws; you are supposed to measure it with only the sloped part (first centimeter) of the jaws, and not to stuff the measured element all the way to the main scale... You'll see what I meant at 02:11 what you did there was wrong... (don't take this as an insult, it was just a small friedly notification :))

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      It took me a while but I see your point now. Yeah, we were a bit sloppy showing the equivalence between the depth measurement and the space between the main jaws. Thanks for pointing that out!
      We intentionally used a caliper that didn't have the usual 0.1 scale in order to make the video more general. Hopefully, we haven't caused too much confusion by doing so. We'd like people to understand the vernier scale better than just being taught to use one special instance (even if it is arguably the most common).

  • @mehedadorbeen2293
    @mehedadorbeen2293 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do we follow the same procedure for vernier scales with 20 divisions?

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes! We made sure that the formulae given in the video applied to all scales.

  • @lithomediaprinters9910
    @lithomediaprinters9910 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can this be use to measure paper. For example, you count the first 50 sheets then use this Vernier Caliper to measure the other sheets based on the measurements of the counted 50 sheets to get 50 "counted' sheets?

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      As long as each of the 50 sheets is identical, that should work. Measuring 50 at once will give you an average thickness. Doing a standard error analysis will tell you if your measurement error is > One sheet.

    It looks like, on the small scale, there are only 5 marks between numbers. I would think each mark would equal .02. But I have never done this before, just commenting.

  • @bacteriadaddychannel
    @bacteriadaddychannel 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    hi what does it mean of the smallest division of the main scale? why is it 0.1cm? how did it arrive to the value of 0.1?

  • @lakshmangamlath3556
    @lakshmangamlath3556 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    But the 0 on main scale doesn't coincide with the place where the coin begins... Somebody explain?

    • @ozadrian
      @ozadrian 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Lakshman Gamlath No that's true, but it does coincide with the 0 on the smaller slide part as you can see on the video when the jaws are completely closed at around 0:12.

  • @docu73
    @docu73 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you did it wrong. There were 50 lines on the vernier scale, so you have to divide it by 50 am I right?

    • @SMUPhysics
      @SMUPhysics  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not simply the number of lines on the vernier scale, you the numbers that label the lines (though if there are no labels, then you would just count them). It's related to the spacing of the lines on the vernier scale as compared to the spacing on the main scale.

    • @docu73
      @docu73 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      SMUPhysics I think the vernier scale is 50 mm. Thus 50 line on the vernier scale equal 49 line on the main scale. So I think this caliper has accuracy to the 1/50=0.02 mm. Therefore, when you get the number on the vernier scale you have to multiply it by 0.02, right?
      If you have a vernier scale that is 10 cm long then yes you multiply it by 0.01. But from my experience I see no caliper has such accuracy. The maximum accuracy is usually to the 0.02 mm. If I went down to the 10 micrometre I often use a micrometer. Am I right?
