What do you mean by zero error of a screw gauge? How is it accounted for?
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
State the formula for determining a pitch
How do you account for positive zero error for calculating the correct diameter of wires?
