In a screw gauge,the fifth division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line when the ratchet is closed. There are $50$ divisions on the circular scale,and the main scale moves by $0.5 \, mm$ on a complete rotation. For a particular observation,the reading on the main scale is $5 \, mm$ and the $20^{th}$ division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line. Calculate the true reading in $mm$.

$A$ screw gauge has some zero error but its value is unknown. We have two identical rods. When the first rod is inserted in the screw gauge,the state of the instrument is shown by diagram $(I)$. When both the rods are inserted together in series,the state is shown by diagram $(II)$. What is the zero error of the instrument in $mm$? Given: $1 \, M.S.D. = 100 \, C.S.D. = 1 \, mm$.
