Figure shows the position of vernier scale while measuring the external length of a wooden cylinder.
- What is the length recorded by the main scale?
- Which reading of vernier scale coincides with the main scale?
- Calculate the length.
(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.
What is the need for measuring length with vernier callipers?
Which part of vernier callipers is used to measure the internal length of a hollow cylinder?
Figure shows a screw gauge in which circular scale has 100 divisions. Calculate the least count and the diameter of a wire.
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.
