उत्तर

Number of circular scale divisions (C.S.D.) = 50
Distance moved by screw (spindle) on sleeve = 2 mm
Number of complete rotations given = 4

(1) Pitch = `"Distance moved by screw on sleeve"/"No. of complete rotations"`

= `(2 "mm")/4`

= 0.5 mm

(2) Pitch = 0.05 cm

Least count = `"Pitch"/"No. of circular scale divisions"`

= `0.05/50`

= 0.001 cm

In the vernier callipers, there are 10 divisions on the vernier scale and 1 cm on the main scale is divided into 10 parts. While measuring the length, the zero of the vernier lies just ahead of the 1.8 cm mark and the 4th division of vernier coincides with a main scale division.

(a) Find the length.

(b) If zero error of vernier callipers is -0.02 cm,

What is the correct length ?


Is it possible to increase the degree of accuracy by mathematical manipulations? Support your answer by an example.


Up to how many decimal places can a common vernier callipers measure the length in cm?
