Define the least count of vernier callipers. How do you determine it?


Explain the terms : Least count of a screw gauge.
How are they determined?


A screw gauge has a least count 0.001 cm and zero error +0.007 cm. Draw a neat diagram to represent it.


Define metre according to the old definition.


(a) A vernier scale has 10 divisions. It slides over the main scale, whose pitch is 1.0 mm. If the number of divisions on the left hand of zero of the vernier scale on the main scale is 56 and the 8th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale, calculate the length in centimetres.
(b) If the above instrument has a negative error of 0.07 cm, calculate the corrected length.


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.
If this screw gauge reading is 9 divisions on the main scale and 67 divisions on the circular scale for the diameter of a thin wire, calculate

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

How do you account for positive zero error for calculating the correct diameter of wires?


State whether the following statement is true or false by writing T/F against it.

A metre scale can measure a length of 6.346 cm.


What is the importance of a vernier scale?

A Vernier calliper reads a main scale reading of 2.3 cm and the 5th division of the Vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. If the least count is 0.01 cm, what is the actual reading?
