A student measured the length of a rod and wrote it as $3.50\;cm$. Which instrument did he use to measure it?
A vernier calliper where the $10$ divisions in vernier scale matches with $9$ division in main scale and main scale has $10$ divisions in $1\; cm$.
A screw gauge having $100$ divisions in the circular scale and pitch as $1\; mm.$
A screw gauge having $50$ divisions in the circular scale and pitch as $1\; mm.$
A meter scale.
In a screw gauge, there are $100$ divisions on the circular scale and the main scale moves by $0.5\,mm$ on a complete rotation of the circular scale. The zero of circular scale lies $6$ divisions below the line of graduation when two studs are brought in contact with each other. When a wire is placed between the studs, $4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while $46^{\text {th }}$ division the circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is $...........\times 10^{-2}\,mm$
The vernier constant of Vernier callipers is $0.1 \,mm$ and it has zero error of $(-0.05) \,cm$. While measuring diameter of a sphere, the main scale reading is $1.7 \,cm$ and coinciding vernier division is $5$. The corrected diameter will be ........... $\times 10^{-2} \,cm$
If in a Vernier callipers $10 \,VSD$ coincides with $8 \,MSD$, then the least count of Vernier calliper is ............ $m$ [given $1 \,MSD =1 \,mm ]$
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 ? .......... $mm$
$1\,M.S.D. = 100\, C.S.D. = 1\, mm $
In a vernier callipers, $(N+1)$ divisions of vernier scale coincide with $N$ divisions of main scale. If $1 \mathrm{MSD}$ represents $0.1 \mathrm{~mm}$, the vernier constant (in $\mathrm{cm}$ ) is:
