For the determination of the refractive index of a glass slab,a travelling microscope is used whose main scale contains $300$ equal divisions equal to $15 \ cm$. The vernier scale attached to the microscope has $25$ divisions equal to $24$ divisions of the main scale. The least count $(LC)$ of the travelling microscope is (in $cm$):

In a Vernier Calipers,$10$ divisions of the Vernier scale are equal to $9$ divisions of the main scale. When both jaws of the Vernier calipers touch each other,the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the left of the zero of the main scale,and the $4^{\text{th}}$ Vernier scale division exactly coincides with a main scale division. One main scale division is equal to $1\,mm$. While measuring the diameter of a spherical body,the body is held between the two jaws. It is observed that the zero of the Vernier scale lies between $30$ and $31$ divisions of the main scale,and the $6^{\text{th}}$ Vernier scale division exactly coincides with a main scale division. The diameter of the spherical body is $.......\,cm$.

One main scale division of a vernier callipers is $a \ cm$ and $n^{\text{th}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with $(n-1)^{\text{th}}$ division of the main scale. The least count of the callipers in $mm$ is

While measuring the diameter of a wire using a screw gauge, the following readings were noted. The main scale reading is $1 \,mm$ and the circular scale reading is equal to $42$ divisions. The pitch of the screw gauge is $1 \,mm$ and it has $100$ divisions on the circular scale. The diameter of the wire is $\frac{x}{50} \,mm$. The value of $x$ is:

The vernier calliper used for measurement has a positive zero error of $0.3 \ mm$. While taking measurement for the internal diameter of a vessel,it was observed that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $9.5 \ cm$ and $9.6 \ cm$ of the main scale and the $6^{th}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. If the least count of the vernier calliper is $0.01 \ cm$,the correct value of the diameter will be: (in $cm$)
