उत्तर

The reading of a Vernier caliper is given by:

Measured Length = Main Scale Reading (MSR) + (Vernier Coincidence (VC) × Least Count (LC))

Given:

  • Main Scale Reading (MSR) = 7 cm
  • Vernier Coincidence (VC) = 6
  • Least Count (LC) is generally 0.01 cm (assuming typical calipers).

Step 1: Calculate the Measured Length

Measured Length = 7 + (6 × 0.01)

Measured Length = 7 + 0.06 = 7.06 cm

Step 2: Find the Radius

The diameter of the ball is 7.06 cm, so the radius is:

`"Radius" = "Diameter"/2 = 7.06/2 = 3.53  cm`

The radius of the ball is 3.53 cm.
