उत्तर
No. of circular scale division = 100
Pitch =0.5 mm
= `(0.5 "mm")/100`
= 0.005 mm
L.C. = 0.005 mm = 0.0005 cm
Main scale reading = 4.5 mm = 0.45 cm
(C.S.D.) circular scale reading = 73 division
Observed diameter of wire = Main scale reading + L.C. × C.S.D.
= 0.45 + 0.0005 × 73
= 0.45 + 0.0365
= 0.4865 cm
