उत्तर

Pitch of the screw gauge = 0.5mm = 0.05 cm
Circular scale divisions = 100
Least Count of screw gauge = pitch of the gauge/circular scale divisions
= 0.05/100
= 0.0005cm

Name the part of the vernier callipers which is used to measure the following

Internal diameter of a mug


Fig., below shows the reading obtained while measuring the diameter of a wire with a screw gauge. The screw advances by 1 division on the main scale when circular head is rotated once.  

Find:
(i) Pitch of the screw gauge,
(ii) Least count of the screw gauge and
(iii) The diameter of the wire.


The main scale of vernier callipers has 10 divisions in a centimetre and 10 vernier scale divisions coincide with 9 main scale divisions. Calculate

  1. pitch
  2. L.C. of vernier callipers.

(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.


Which part of vernier callipers is used to measure the internal diameter of a hollow cylinder?


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

  1. pitch
  2. observed diameter.
  3. least count
  4. corrected diameter.
