The pitch and the number of divisions on the circular scale for a given screw gauge are $0.5\,mm$ and $100$ respectively. When the screw gauge is fully tightened without any object,the zero of its circular scale lies $3$ divisions below the mean line. The readings of the main scale and the circular scale for a thin sheet are $5.5\,mm$ and $48$ respectively. The thickness of this sheet is: (in $,mm$)

The diameter of a cylinder is measured using a vernier callipers with no zero error. It is found that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $5.10 \ cm$ and $5.15 \ cm$ of the main scale. The vernier scale has $50$ divisions equivalent to $2.45 \ cm$. The $24^{\text{th}}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The diameter of the cylinder is: (in $cm$)

One main scale division of a Vernier calliper is equal to $1 \text{ mm}$ and the number of divisions on the Vernier scale is $10$. When both the jaws touch each other, the Vernier scale shifts to the left of zero of the main scale in such a way that $4^{th}$ Vernier division coincides with a division of the main scale. If the Vernier calliper measures the length of a wire to be $1 \text{ cm}$, the actual length of the wire is : (in $\text{ cm}$)

Using a screw gauge with a pitch of $0.1 \ cm$ and $50$ divisions on its circular scale,the thickness of an object is measured. How should the measurement be correctly recorded (in $cm$)?

The circular divisions of a screw gauge are $50$. It moves $0.5 \ mm$ on the main scale in one rotation. When the diameter of a wire is measured,the main scale reading is $3.5 \ mm$ and the circular scale reading is $32$. If the zero error (positive) in the screw gauge is $0.06 \ mm$,then the diameter of the wire is:
