State the formula for calculating the least count of screw.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Least count of screw
= `"Pitch"/"Number of circular scale divisions"`
E.g. If pitch of screw is 1 mm and there are 100 divisions on the circular scales, then
Least count = `(1 "mm")/100` = 0.01 mm
L.C. = 0.01 mm or 0.001 cm
