When does a vernier callipers has the positive error?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Positive Error: If the zero of the vernier scale is on the right-hand side of zero of the main scale, then the error is said to be positive and correction is said to be negative.

Define the least count of vernier callipers. How do you determine it?
While measuring the length of a rod with a vernier callipers, below shows the position of its scales. What is the length of the rod?
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.
State the formula for determining a pitch
A micrometre screw gauge having a positive zero error of 5 divisions is used to measure diameter of a wire, when reading on the main scale is 3rd division and the 48th circular scale division coincides with baseline. If the micrometer has 10 divisions to a centimetre on the main scale and 100 divisions on a circular scale, calculate
- Pitch of screw
- Least count of screw
- Observed diameter
- Corrected diameter.
