The document outlines two experiments using Vernier Calipers to measure the diameter of a spherical or cylindrical body and to calculate the volume of a beaker or calorimeter. It details the apparatus, theory, procedure, observations, calculations, results, precautions, and sources of error for each experiment. The experiments emphasize the importance of accurate measurements and proper handling of the equipment to minimize errors.

mors EXPERIMENT 1 & To measure diameter of a small spherical/cylindrical body using Vernier Callipers. APPARATUS Vernier Calipers, a spherical body (pendulum bob) or a cylinder and a magnifying lens. THEORY If with the body between the jaws, the zero of vernier scale lies ahead of Nth division of main scale, then main scale reading (M.S.R.) = N. If nth division of vernier scale coincides with any division of main scale, then vernier scale reading (V.S.R.) =nx(L.C.) (L.C. is least count of vernier callipers) =nx(V.C.) (V.C. is vernier constant of vernier callipers) Total reading, T.R. = M.S.R. + V.S.R. (.C. = V.C.) =N+nx (VC). DIAGRAM — Fig. Vernier Callipers—Measuring diameter of 1. sphere. PROCEDURE 1.
