In an experiment with Vernier callipers of least count $0.1\,mm$,when two jaws are joined together,the zero of the Vernier scale lies to the right of the zero of the main scale and the $6^{th}$ division of the Vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. While measuring the diameter of a spherical bob,the zero of the Vernier scale lies between $3.2\,cm$ and $3.3\,cm$ marks,and the $4^{th}$ division of the Vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The diameter of the bob is measured as $.......\,cm$.

$A$ screw gauge has $50$ divisions on its circular scale. The circular scale is $4$ units ahead of the pitch scale marking,prior to use. Upon one complete rotation of the circular scale,a displacement of $0.5\, mm$ is noticed on the pitch scale. The nature of zero error involved,and the least count of the screw gauge,are respectively
Diameter of a steel ball is measured using a Vernier callipers which has divisions of $0.1\,cm$ on its main scale $(MS)$ and $10$ divisions of its vernier scale $(VS)$ match $9$ divisions on the main scale. Three such measurements for a ball are given as:
$S$.No. $MS\;(cm)$ $VS$ divisions $(1)$ $0.5$ $8$ $(2)$ $0.5$ $4$ $(3)$ $0.5$ $6$
If the zero error is $-0.03\,cm,$ then the mean corrected diameter is ........... $cm$.

In a vernier calliper,when both jaws touch each other,the zero of the vernier scale shifts towards the left and its $4^{\text{th}}$ division coincides exactly with a certain division on the main scale. If $50$ vernier scale divisions $(VSD)$ are equal to $49$ main scale divisions $(MSD)$ and the zero error in the instrument is $0.04 \text{ mm}$,then how many main scale divisions are there in $1 \text{ cm}$?

View Solution$A$ screw gauge has a pitch of $1.5\; mm$ and there is no zero error. The linear scale has markings at $MSD = 1\; mm$ and there are $100$ equal divisions on the circular scale. When the diameter of a sphere is measured with this instrument,the $2\; mm$ mark is visible on the linear scale,but the $3\; mm$ mark is not visible. The $76^{th}$ division of the circular scale is in line with the linear scale. What is the diameter of the sphere in $mm$?

View SolutionWhen both jaws of vernier callipers touch each other, the zero mark of the vernier scale is to the right of the zero mark of the main scale, and the $4^{\text{th}}$ mark on the vernier scale coincides with a certain mark on the main scale. While measuring the length of a cylinder, the observer observes $15$ divisions on the main scale and the $5^{\text{th}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The measured length of the cylinder is . . . . . . $mm$. (Least count of Vernier calliper $= 0.1 \ mm$)
