$A$ 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 $mm$?
- A$2.64$
- B$3.14$
- C$1.14$
- D$2.76$

View Solution$A$ 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: $1 \, M.S.D. = 100 \, C.S.D. = 1 \, mm$.
