The circular scale of a screw gauge has 100 divisions. Its spindle moves forward by 2.5 mm when given five complete turns. Calculate
- pitch
- least count of the screw gauge

उत्तर
Number of circular scale divisions = 100
Distance moved by spindle (screw) = 2.5 mm
No. of complete rotations given = 5
(1) Pitch = `"Distance moved by screw on sleeve"/"No. of complete rotations"`
= `2.5/5`
= 0.5 mm
= 0.05 cm
(2) Least count = `"Pitch"/"No. of circular scale divisions"`
= `0.05/100` cm
= 0.0005 cm

Draw a neat and labelled diagram of a vernier callipers. Name its main parts and state their functions.
Name the part of the vernier callipers which is used to measure the following
Depth of a small bottle
(a) A vernier scale has 20 divisions. It slides over the main scale, whose pitch is 0.5 mm. If the number of divisions on the left hand of the zero of vernier on the main scale is 38 and the 18th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale, calculate the diameter of the sphere, held in the jaws of vernier callipers.
(b) If the vernier has a negative error of 0.04 cm, calculate the corrected radius of the sphere.
The least count of a vernier callipers is 0.01 cm and it has an error of + 0.07 cm. While measuring the radius of a sphere, the main scale reading is 2.90 cm and the 5th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale. Calculate the correct radius.
State the formula for calculating length if:
The reading of the main scale is known and the number of vernier scale divisions coinciding with the main scale is known.
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
- pitch
- observed diameter.
- least count
- corrected diameter.
