Themetric Vernier caliper measurement is, 82.42mm.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given setting is,

  Mathematics for Machine Technology, Chapter 31, Problem 1A , additional homework tip  1

Calculation:

Given:

  Mathematics for Machine Technology, Chapter 31, Problem 1A , additional homework tip  2

Read the main scale reading to the left of the zero graduation on the Vernier scale.

Eighty-one 1 -millimeter division and two 0.5 -millimeter division.

81×1mm+2×0.5mm=82mm

The 21th Vernier scale graduation coincides. Each Vernier scale graduation represents 0.02mm.

The number of millimeters represented by 21 divisions.

0.02mm×21=0.42mm

Vernier caliper reading =82mm+0.42mm=82.42mm

Hence the metric Vernier caliper measurement is, 82.42mm.
