The Vernier Caliper and Micrometer Experiment # 1 Abstract: The activity involved the use of both vernier and micrometer calipers accurately on measuring provided materials. The objectives of the act were to familiarize the students with the use of the said scales and to demonstrate their differences. The dimensions of a metallic cube made of steel and a metallic washer were measured using a vernier caliper while that of a marble made of glass and the same metal cube were measured using the

The uncertainties of measurements using a ruler‚ caliper‚ and spring scales. Isaiah Gonzales‚ Roman Acuna September 19‚ 2014 Abstract: The experimenters conducted a total of four mini labs. In each lab they had to find measurements dealing with different instruments such as a ruler‚ caliper‚ stopwatch‚ and two spring scales of different newtons. The objective in each experiment was to record and measure different objects and to also give advantages and uncertainties when dealing with different

error) or random error (not deterministic error). In this experiment‚ the group measured the diameter of sphere using different kinds of measuring devices (foot rule‚ vernier caliper‚ and micrometer caliper) in order to achieve accuracy in the scientific measurements. After experimenting‚ it was revealed that the micrometer caliper has the lowest percentage of error. 1. Introduction In the early days‚ people used mostly human body parts for measuring. And because the measurement depended on the body

Experiment 1: Error‚ Uncertainties and Measurements Laboratory Report Jan Luke Mendoza‚ Alexis Vienne Munar‚ Paula Murakami‚ Giorla Joanne Negre Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas Espana‚ Manila Abstract Throughout the experiment the main goal is to find out about the realities in taking measurements‚ that is‚ that there will always be an uncertainty for each acquired value. And to find out and recognize these uncertainties was handled in the

namely the foot rule‚ vernier caliper‚ and micrometer caliper‚ were used to measure the diameter of a metal sphere. Ten independent measurements were taken per instrument. Statistical computations were performed to show the accuracy and precision of each instrument. Upon computation of the volume and density of the sphere based from the mean diameter‚ the percent error for each instrument was computed. At the end of the experiment‚ it was found that the micrometer caliper is the most accurate instrument

Experiment 1: Errors‚ Uncertainties and Measurements Laboratory Report Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas Abstract With the use of the ruler‚ vernier caliper‚ micrometer caliper and electronic gram scale‚ the group was able to acquire different sets of measurements by measuring the sphere of unknown composition. The group then was able to compute its mean diameter‚ average deviation‚ average deviation of the mean‚ volume‚ mass and % percent

The teams were then briefed about each instrument and how each tool has is used depending on the type of measurement required. Also‚ the teams were taught how to use the tools in an orderly manner to ensure the safety of the tools. When the teams were instructed about the different tools‚ they discovered the variability inherent in manufactured components. The first micrometer was invented in the

The smallest division of vernier scale is called the least count of vernier caliper. It may be different for different vernier calipers (and other measuring
