what is the principle of vernier calipers

The principle of the vernier caliper (or any vernier scale) is to divide a given distance into n and n+1 smaller distances, with each scale movable with respect to the other. Matching up the etched marks on each scale then gives a 1/n increment of additional accuracy in the measurement.
