Define the least count of vernier callipers. How do you determine it?
Describe the procedure to measure the diameter of a wire with the help of a screw gauge.
A screw has a pitch equal to 0.5 mm. What should be the number of divisions on its head so as to read correctly up to 0.001 mm with its help?
In a vernier callipers, 19 main scale divisions coincide with 20 vernier scale divisions. If the main scale has 20 divisions in a centimetre, calculate
- pitch
- L.C. of vernier callipers.
How do you account for positive zero error for calculating the correct diameter of wires?
In the following figure, the pitch of the screw is 1 mm. Calculate:
(i) the least count of screw gauge and
(ii) the reading represented in the figure.

Define the least count of an instrument.
Consider the following case where the zero of vernier scale and the zero of the main scale are clearly seen. If L.C. of the vernier calipers is 0.01 cm, write the zero error and zero correction of the following.
