$A$ 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
    $2.76$

$A$ screw gauge with a pitch of $0.5 \ mm$ and a circular scale with $50$ divisions is used to measure the thickness of a thin sheet of Aluminium. Before starting the measurement,it is found that when the two jaws of the screw gauge are brought in contact,the $45^{th}$ division coincides with the main scale line and the zero of the main scale is barely visible. What is the thickness of the sheet (in $mm$) if the main scale reading is $0.5 \ mm$ and the $25^{th}$ division coincides with the main scale line?

The vernier calliper used for measurement has a positive zero error of $0.3 \ mm$. While taking measurement for the internal diameter of a vessel,it was observed that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $9.5 \ cm$ and $9.6 \ cm$ of the main scale and the $6^{th}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. If the least count of the vernier calliper is $0.01 \ cm$,the correct value of the diameter will be: (in $cm$)

If the screw on a screw gauge is given six rotations,it moves by $3\; mm$ on the main scale. If there are $50$ divisions on the circular scale,the least count of the screw gauge is:

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 $cm$)

$10$ divisions on the main scale of a Vernier calliper coincide with $11$ divisions on the Vernier scale. If each division on the main scale is of $5$ units,the least count of the instrument is :
