Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : In Vernier calliper if positive zero error exists, then while taking measurements, the reading taken will be more than the actual reading.

Reason (R) : The zero error in Vernier Calliper might have happened due to manufacturing defect or due to rough handling.
In the light of the above statements, choose the
correct answer from the options given below:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the
correct explanation of (A)
Option C is correct because a positive zero error in a Vernier calliper leads to readings greater than the actual value, and this error can arise from manufacturing defects or rough handling.
