उत्तर

A common vernier calliper can measure the length accurately up to two places of decimal when the length is measured in centimetre
i.e. up to 1/100 the part of a centimetre.

The wavelength of light of a particular colour is 5800 Å.
Express it in nanometre.


Name the two scales of a vernier callipers and explain how it is used to measure length correct up to 0.01 cm.


Fig., below shows the reading obtained while measuring the diameter of a wire with a screw gauge. The screw advances by 1 division on the main scale when circular head is rotated once.  

Find:
(i) Pitch of the screw gauge,
(ii) Least count of the screw gauge and
(iii) The diameter of the wire.


The final result of the calculation in an experiment is 125,347,200. Express the number in term of significant place when accuracy is between 1 and 100


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 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.

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