उत्तर

Pitch = `"Unit of main scale"/"No. of divisions in the unit"`

For example: If one-centimetre length has ten divisions then
Pitch = `(1"cm")/10` = 0.1 cm

The diameter of a thin wire can be measured by


(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.
