Assertion $A$: If in five complete rotations of the circular scale,the distance travelled on the main scale of the screw gauge is $5 \, mm$ and there are $50$ total divisions on the circular scale,then the least count is $0.001 \, cm$.
Reason $R$: $\text{Least Count} = \frac{\text{Pitch}}{\text{Total divisions on circular scale}}$
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Two full turns of the circular scale of a screw gauge cover a distance of $1 \ mm$ on its main scale. The total number of divisions on the circular scale is $50$. Further,it is found that the screw gauge has a zero error of $-0.03 \ mm$. While measuring the diameter of a thin wire,a student notes the main scale reading of $3 \ mm$ and the number of circular scale divisions in line with the main scale as $35$. The diameter of the wire is ....... $mm$

$A$ student measured the length of a rod and wrote it as $3.50\;cm$. Which instrument did he use to measure it?

In an experiment to find out the diameter of a wire using a screw gauge,the following observations were noted:
$(a)$ The screw moves $0.5\,mm$ on the main scale in one complete rotation.
$(b)$ Total divisions on the circular scale $= 50$.
$(c)$ Main scale reading is $2.5\,mm$.
$(d)$ The $45^{\text{th}}$ division of the circular scale is on the pitch line.
$(e)$ The instrument has a $0.03\,mm$ negative zero error.
Then the diameter of the wire is $...........\,mm$.

In a vernier callipers,$(N+1)$ divisions of vernier scale coincide with $N$ divisions of main scale. If $1 \text{ MSD}$ represents $0.1 \text{ mm}$,the vernier constant (in $\text{cm}$) is:
