    This document summarizes a student's lab work measuring various parts using a vernier caliper. The student measured dimensions of 15 parts labeled A through U, taking 3 measurements of each and recording the average. Some parts like C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, and T showed more variability while others like A, B, L, N, and U were more precise. The conclusion discusses that a vernier caliper can accurately measure internal and external distances, but interpretation is more difficult than with a digital caliper. The objectives, resources used, and references are also outlined.

    OBJECTIVES
    TO LEARN HOW TO USE THE FOLLOWING MEASURING DEVICE AND
    UNDERSTAND THE UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THEM.
    a) METER STICK
    b) METRIC RULER
    c) TRIPLE BEAM BALANCE
    d) DIGITAL BALANCE
    e) VERNIER CALIPERS

    THIS PRACTICAL TASK WILL BE USED TO PERFORM LINEAR


    MEASUREMENT BY USING VERNIER CALIPER. IT WILL BE USED TO
    INTERPRET MY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE THEORIES
    AND TECHNIQUES DISCUSSED WITHIN THE TOPIC INTO MY PRACTICAL
    APPLICATION.

    INTRODUCTION
    I WAS GIVEN A TASK FROM LECTURER BASIC METROLOGY, TO
    MEASURE SPECIMENT FROM PART A UNTIL PART U AT METROLOGY LAB
    BY USING VERNIER CALIPER.I USING TWO TYPE OF VERNIER CALIPER
    THERE IS A 0-25mm,ANOTHER ONE 0-45mm.FOR 1 PART I MEASURE 3
    TIMES TO TAKE A AVERAGE READING.

    DISCUSSION
    WHEN I HAVE DONE MEASURE THE SPECIMENT I NOTICE THAT, PART C,
    D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, AND T ARE NOT PRECISION. HOWEVER, PART A, B, L,
    N, AND U ARE PRECISION.

    MAIN RESOURCES
    1. EXTERNAL VERNIER CALIPER
    2. WORKPIECE (S)/ SPECIMEN (S)
    3. DRAWING AS IN APPENDIX LW3.1 AND LW 3.2

    CONCLUSION
    The Vernier Caliper is a precision instrument that can be used to measure
    internal and external distances extremely accurately. The example shown below
    is a manual caliper. Measurements are interpreted from the scale by the user.
    This is more difficult than using a digital vernier caliper which has an LCD digital
    display on which the reading appears. The manual version has both an imperial
    and metric scale. In this labworks we can more practice how to use manual
    vernier caliper.
