If a vernier caliper has zero reading of 0.025 cm and the caliper reads 5.565 cm what should be the correct reading?
5.565 - 0.025 = 5.54 so caliper reads 5.54 cm
If the zero reading on the vernier calipers is -0.025 cm with the reading still 5.565cm, it is 5.565 - (-0.025) = 5.565 + 0.025 = 5.59 cm
The zero reading of a vernier caliper is when the jaws are closed and the main scale '0' mark aligns perfectly with the zero mark on the vernier scale. This is the reference point for taking measurements with the vernier caliper.
Calibration of vernier calliper can be done using slip guages i.e. mirror finished rectangular blocks of alloy steel having different sizes & error less than one micrometer. These blocks can be joined together by sliding polished faces over each other to get disired length. Measuring this length & compairing the actual reading, we can calibrate the equipment.
Take out a ruler with English and metric units. Draw one inch on a piece of paper with a pen. Now turn to the other side of the ruler and read how long your line is. It should be around 2.5 cm. If you were able to refine your measurement (say with a vernier caliper) you would see that your line would be 2.54 cm (or 25.4 mm).
One way to increase your reading rate is to practice timed repeated readings.
"as a result" is the correct phrase to use. "As the result" is not grammatically correct.

The vernier caliper is more accurate that a plastic ruler. That's because the caliper is designed to be used and effectively read to measure small distances. And it does this better than a "regular" ruler because it has a vernier scale built into it. It's like an "amplified ruler" attached to the device that has increased accuracy. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the vernier caliper and to the one on the vernier scale. Check out the pictures and skim the details. You should be able to pick it up with a bit of thought.
There are several conclusion for Vernier calipers. One is that in comparison to other tools like micrometers, they have less accuracy. Regardless, the Vernier calipers seem to allow a larger measurement range leading to better versatility.
dafuq is this even english?!
A vernier caliper should be used to measure the diameter of a steel ball.
The zero error of a measuring instrument is the measure that it shows when it should actually be showing zero.
It depends how accurately you can read the scale. A ruler would only be accurate to 1 mm. If the caliper has a vernier scale it should be ten times better
Zero error is defined as the condition where a measuring instrument registers a reading when there should not be any reading. In case of Vernier calipers it occurs when a zero on main scale does not coincide with a zero on Vernier scale. Source: calculatored and written by Shaun Murphy
No, it makes complete nonsense reading "you had this......... "You should have had this yesterday!"

JSGPM sizing tool....or a six inch caliper!
The size of the bolt needed for the brake caliper depends on the specific make and model of the vehicle. It is important to consult the manufacturer's specifications or a professional mechanic to determine the correct size bolt for the brake caliper.
