Solution
Final result of the calculation in an experiment = 125,347,200
When accuracy lies between 1 and 100, then the final result may be written as 1.25 × 108.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 0.5 mm and the head scale is divided in 100 parts. What is the least count of a screw gauge?
A screw has a pitch equal to 0.5 mm. What should be the number of divisions on its head so as to read correctly up to 0.001 mm with its help?
State the correction if the positive error is 7 divisions when the least count is 0.01 cm.
A micrometre screw gauge has a positive zero error of 7 divisions, such that its main scale is marked in 1/2 mm and the circular scale has 100 divisions. The spindle of the screw advances by 1 division complete rotation.
If this screw gauge reading is 9 divisions on the main scale and 67 divisions on the circular scale for the diameter of a thin wire, calculate
- Pitch
- L.C.
- Observed diameter
- Corrected diameter

State whether the following statement is true or false by writing T/F against it.
The diameter of a wire can be measured more accurately by using vernier calipers than by a screw gauge.
The following diagrams (Fig. 5) show the use of a vernier caliper under three different situations. Study the diagrams carefully and note down the vernier readings in each case.
