The pitch of a screw gauge is $0.5 \ mm$ and there are $100$ divisions on its circular scale. The instrument reads $+2$ divisions on the circular scale when nothing is placed between its jaws. In measuring the diameter of a wire,there are $8$ divisions on the main scale and the $83^{rd}$ division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line. Then the diameter of the wire is (in $mm$)

The main scale division of a vernier caliper is $1 \ mm$. The vernier scale divisions are in an arithmetic progression $(A.P.)$; the $1^{st}$ division is $0.95 \ mm$, the $2^{nd}$ division is $0.90 \ mm$, and so on. When an object is placed between the jaws of the vernier caliper, the zero of the vernier scale lies between $3.1 \ cm$ and $3.2 \ cm$, and the $4^{th}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The reading of the vernier caliper is .......... $cm$.

$A$ screw gauge gives the following readings when used to measure the diameter of a wire:
Main scale reading: $0 \, mm$
Circular scale reading: $52$ divisions
Given that $1 \, mm$ on the main scale corresponds to $100$ divisions on the circular scale. The diameter of the wire from the above data is ...... $cm$.

The figure below shows a particular position of the Vernier calipers on a centimetre scale. In this position,the value of $x$ shown in the figure is .......... $cm$ (figure is not to scale).

The pitch of the screw gauge is $1\, mm$ and there are $100$ divisions on the circular scale. When nothing is put in between the jaws,the zero of the circular scale lies $8$ divisions below the reference line. When a wire is placed between the jaws,the first linear scale division is clearly visible while $72^{nd}$ division on the circular scale coincides with the reference line. The radius of the wire is.........$mm$
