उत्तर
Pitch of a screw gauge = 0.5 mm
No. of divisions on the circular scale = 100
L.C. = `(0.5/100)` mm
= 0.005 mm or 0.0005 cm

Thickness of a pencil.
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 ?
Define metre in terms of the wavelength of light.
In figure for vernier callipers, calculate the length recorded.

A micrometre screw gauge has a negative zero error of 8 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 3 divisions and the 24th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale are 20 to a centimetre and circular scale has 50 divisions, calculate
- pitch
- observed diameter.
- least count
- corrected diameter.
