State the formula for calculating the least count of screw.

उत्तर
Least count of screw
= `"Pitch"/"Number of circular scale divisions"`
E.g. If pitch of screw is 1 mm and there are 100 divisions on the circular scales, then
Least count = `(1 "mm")/100` = 0.01 mm
L.C. = 0.01 mm or 0.001 cm

The wavelength of light is 589 nm. what is its wavelength in Å?
A micrometre screw gauge has a negative zero error of 7 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 2 divisions and 79th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale is 10 to a centimetre and circular scale has 100 divisions, calculate
- pitch
- observed diameter
- least count
- corrected diameter.
