State some of the errors that one might make in measuring length using both the Vernier and
micrometer calipers.
Errors that can be made while using both the Vernier caliper and the micrometer
caliper is human error and instrument error. You can over force the instruments, causing
your sample to deform. You can also under force the instruments, leaving clearance
(empty air) adding up to your measurement. The reader, without proper knowledge, may
also read measurements wrong and make wrong judgments. The instrument used may
have problems in itself for example, it may be deformed or loose or it may have problems
with the markings contributing to wrong measurements and miscalculations.
4.) Determine the percentage error for an observed value of 1.112 x 10 -5 is the standard value is
1.117 x 10-5.
