Define the term 'Vernier constant'.


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


A screw gauge has 50 divisions on its circular scale and its screw moves by 1 mm on turning it by two revolutions. When the flat end of the screw is in contact with the stud, the zero of the circular scale lies below the base line and 4th division of the circular scale is in line with the base line. Find

(i) The pitch,

(ii) The least count and

(iii) The zero error of the screw gauge


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.


The circular scale of a screw gauge has 100 divisions. Its spindle moves forward by 2.5 mm when given five complete turns. Calculate

  1. pitch
  2. least count of the screw gauge

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

  1. Pitch of screw
  2. Least count of screw
  3. Observed diameter
  4. Corrected diameter.

What is the least count in the case of the following instrument?

vernier calipers


What is the importance of a vernier scale?

Define the least count of an instrument.


We can find the diameter of a wire by wrapping it around a pencil and measuring the length of turns with the help of a meter scale. Is this approach more accurate than determining the diameter of the wire with the help of a screw gauge?
