उत्तर

Pitch of screw
= `"Distance moved by thimble on main scale"/"Number of rotations of thimble"`

E.g. If 5 mm is the distance moved by the thimble on the main scale in 5 rotations then,

Pitch = `(5 "mm")/5` = 1 mm

Name the instrument which has the least count

 0.1 mm


Define metre according to the old definition.


Figure shows a screw gauge in which circular scale has 200 divisions. Calculate the least count and radius of the wire.


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

  1. Pitch
  2. L.C.
  3. Observed diameter
  4. Corrected diameter

A micrometre screw gauge has a negative zero error of 8 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 3 divisions and the 24th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale are 20 to a centimetre and circular scale has 50 divisions, calculate

  1. pitch
  2. observed diameter.
  3. least count
  4. corrected diameter.

The Wavelength of a particular colour is 5400Å. Express it in nanometer and metre.


In the following figure, the pitch of the screw is 1 mm. Calculate:
(i) the least count of screw gauge and
(ii) the reading represented in the figure.


What is the least count in the case of the following instrument?

vernier calipers


Define the least count of an instrument.


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.
