उत्तर
L.C. of vernier callipers = 0.01 cm
In the shown scale,
Main scale reading = 3.3 cm
The 6th vernier division coincides with an m.s.d.
Therefore, vernier scale reading = 6 × 0.01 cm = 0.06 cm
Total reading = M.S.R. + V.S.R.
= 3.3 + 0.06
= 3.36 cm

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 7 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 2 divisions and 79th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale is 10 to a centimetre and circular scale has 100 divisions, calculate
- pitch
- observed diameter
- least count
- corrected diameter.
State the formula for calculating the pitch of screw.
What is meant by the pitch of a screw gauge? The pitch of a screw is 1 mm.
