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, the state of the instrument is shown by diagram $(I).$ When both the rods are inserted together in series then the state is shown by the diagram $(II).$ What is the zero error of the instrument ? .......... $mm$

In a Vernier Calipers. $10$ divisions of Vernier scale is equal to the $9$ divisions of main scale. When both jaws of Vernier calipers touch each other, the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the left of $zero$ of the main scale and $4^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly coincides with the main scale reading. One main scale division is equal to $1\,mm$. While measuring diameter of a spherical body, the body is held between two jaws. It is now observed that zero of the Vernier scale lies between $30$ and $31$ divisions of main scale reading and $6^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly. coincides with the main scale reading. The diameter of the spherical body will be $.......cm$
