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

What is the zero reading of a vernier caliper?
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.
How do you calibrate a combination square?
To calibrate a combination square, you can check the accuracy of the 90-degree angle by placing the square against a known straight edge to verify that it is square. You can also use a protractor to measure the angle. If the square is out of alignment, you may need to adjust it by loosening the screw on the ruler and repositioning it until it reads 90 degrees.
Is one inch Exactly 25.4 mm?
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).
What should you do to increase your reading rate-?
One way to increase your reading rate is to practice timed repeated readings.
As a result or as the result?
"as a result" is the correct phrase to use. "As the result" is not grammatically correct.
What is the zero reading of a vernier caliper?
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.
Which is more accurate an ordinary plastic ruler or a vernier caliper?
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.
What will be the best conclusion for vernier caliper?
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.
What concludes the no of significant figures that should be maintain in recording the measurement using vernier caliper?
dafuq is this even english?!
What should be used to measure the diameter of a steel ball bearing as accurately as possible?
A vernier caliper should be used to measure the diameter of a steel ball.
What is zero error in vernier caliper?
The zero error of a measuring instrument is the measure that it shows when it should actually be showing zero.
Is an outside caliper more precise than a ruler?
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
How do you calibrate a combination square?

You can also use a protractor to measure the angle. If the square is out of alignment, you may need to adjust it by loosening the screw on the ruler and repositioning it until it reads 90 degrees.
What is zero error in physics?
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
Is it correct to say you should had this?
No, it makes complete nonsense reading "you had this......... "You should have had this yesterday!"
What should be used to determine the correct size for your protective mask?
JSGPM sizing tool....or a six inch caliper!
When digital caliper jaws are closed the reading without a part must read?
When the digital caliper jaws are closed without a part, the reading should be zero. This ensures that accurate measurements start from a baseline of zero before taking any measurements. If the reading is not zero when the jaws are closed, it may indicate a need for calibration or adjustment.
