Step B: The line on the Vernier scale that lines up with the centre line of the main scale is 34. Step C: Combine these two readings to give a reading of Step D: Subtract the zero error of 0.0 mm: = 5.8. The reading is 5.8 mm. Questions involving calculating distance using the Vernier scale on a micrometer should not be asked in the Leaving Cert. examination. They are, however, of practical use, as a micrometer may be used while carrying out experiments in the laboratory. Exercise 18.3 Page 53
