In a vernier callipers,$10$ divisions of vernier scale coincide with $9$ divisions of main scale. One division of main scale is of $0.1 \ cm$. If in the measurement of inner diameter of a cylinder,the zero of the vernier scale lies between $1.3 \ cm$ and $1.4 \ cm$ of the main scale and the $2^{\text{nd}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division,then the diameter will be: (in $cm$)

  • A
    $1.30$
  • B
    $1.34$
  • C
    $1.32$
  • D
    $1.36$

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:

In a Vernier calipers, when both jaws touch each other, the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the right of the zero of the main scale and the $7^{th}$ Vernier division coincides with a main scale division. If the value of $1$ main scale division is $1 \text{ mm}$ and there are $10$ Vernier scale divisions, then the Vernier caliper has

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$: In a Vernier calliper,if a positive zero error exists,then while taking measurements,the reading taken will be more than the actual reading.
Reason $(R)$: The zero error in a Vernier calliper might have happened due to a manufacturing defect or due to rough handling.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

In a vernier callipers,each $cm$ on the main scale is divided into $20$ equal parts. If the $10^{th}$ vernier scale division coincides with the $9^{th}$ main scale division,then the value of the vernier constant will be $\dots \; \times 10^{-2} \; mm$.

In a screw gauge, the zero of the main scale reference line coincides with the fifth division of the circular scale when two studs are in contact. There are $100$ divisions on the circular scale and the pitch of the screw gauge is $0.1 \text{ mm}$. When the diameter of a sphere is measured, the reading of the main scale is $5 \text{ mm}$ and the $50^{th}$ division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line of the main scale. The diameter of the sphere is . . . . . . $\text{mm}$.
