What do you understand by the following term as applied to screw gauge?
Zero error

Solution
Zero error: If the zero of the main scale does not coincide with zero of circular scale on bringing the screw end in contact with the stud, the screw gauge is said to have zero error.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1 mm and the circular scale has 100 divisions. In measurement of the diameter of a wire, the main scale reads 2 mm and 45th mark on the circular scale coincides with the base line. Find

(ii) The diameter of the wire.
A screw gauge has 50 divisions on its circular scale and its screw moves by 1 mm on turning it by two revolutions. When the flat end of the screw is in contact with the stud, the zero of the circular scale lies below the base line and 4th division of the circular scale is in line with the base line. Find
(i) The pitch,
(ii) The least count and
(iii) The zero error of the screw gauge
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
