In the vernier callipers, there are 10 divisions on the vernier scale and 1 cm on the main scale is divided into 10 parts. While measuring the length, the zero of the vernier lies just ahead of the 1.8 cm mark and the 4th division of vernier coincides with a main scale division.
(a) Find the length.
(b) If zero error of vernier callipers is -0.02 cm,
What is the correct length ?
The final result of the calculation in an experiment is 125,347,200. Express the number in term of significant place when accuracy is between 1 and 100
In a vernier callipers, 19 main scale divisions coincide with 20 vernier scale divisions. If the main scale has 20 divisions in a centimetre, calculate
- pitch
- L.C. of vernier callipers.
State the formula for determining a pitch
A micrometre screw gauge has a positive zero error of 7 divisions, such that its main scale is marked in 1/2 mm and the circular scale has 100 divisions. The spindle of the screw advances by 1 division complete rotation.
If this screw gauge reading is 9 divisions on the main scale and 67 divisions on the circular scale for the diameter of a thin wire, calculate
- Pitch
- L.C.
- Observed diameter
- Corrected diameter
What do you understand by the following term as applied to micrometre screw gauge?
Thimble
Consider the following case where the zero of vernier scale and the zero of the main scale are clearly seen. If L.C. of the vernier calipers is 0.01 cm, write the zero error and zero correction of the following.
