उत्तर
Due to constant use, there is space for the play of screw gauge but gradually this space increases with the use or wear and tear so that when the screw is moved by rotating it in some direction, it slips in the nut and does not cover any linear distance for some rotation of the screw head. The error due to this is known as backlash error.
It is avoided by turning the screw always in the same direction.

State three uses of the vernier callipers.
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.
A micrometre screw gauge having a positive zero error of 5 divisions is used to measure diameter of a wire, when reading on the main scale is 3rd division and the 48th circular scale division coincides with baseline. If the micrometer has 10 divisions to a centimetre on the main scale and 100 divisions on a circular scale, calculate
- Pitch of screw
- Least count of screw
- Observed diameter
- Corrected diameter.
State the formula for calculating the least count of screw.
The level of water in a measuring cylinder is 12.5 ml. When a stone is lowered in it, the volume is 21.0 ml. Find the volume of the stone.
How the backlash error is avoided?
State whether the following statement is true or false by writing T/F against it.
