$A$ 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 ...... $cm$.

$A$ plano-convex lens of unknown material and unknown focal length is given. With the help of a Spherometer,we can measure the,

In a screw gauge, the zero of the circular scale lies $3$ divisions above the horizontal pitch line when their metallic studs are brought in contact. Using this instrument, the thickness of a sheet is measured. If the pitch scale reading is $1 \ mm$ and the circular scale reading is $51$, then the correct thickness of the sheet is . . . . . . $mm$. [Assume least count is $0.01 \ mm$]

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:

$A$ steel wire of diameter $0.5 \text{ mm}$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$ carries a load of mass $M$. The length of the wire with the load is $1.0 \text{ m}$. $A$ vernier scale with $10$ divisions is attached to the end of this wire. Next to the steel wire is a reference wire to which a main scale,of least count $1.0 \text{ mm}$,is attached. The $10$ divisions of the vernier scale correspond to $9$ divisions of the main scale. Initially,the zero of vernier scale coincides with the zero of main scale. If the load on the steel wire is increased by $1.2 \text{ kg}$,the vernier scale division which coincides with a main scale division is. . . . Take $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$ and $\pi = 3.2$.

The least count of the main scale of a screw gauge is $1\, mm$. The minimum number of divisions on its circular scale required to measure $5\,\mu m$ diameter of a wire is
