$A$ student performs an experiment of measuring the thickness of a slab with a vernier calliper whose $50$ divisions of the vernier scale are equal to $49$ divisions of the main scale. He noted that the zero of the vernier scale is between $7.00 \; cm$ and $7.05 \; cm$ mark of the main scale and the $23^{rd}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with the main scale. The measured value of the thickness of the given slab using the calliper will be (in $; cm$)

  • A
    $7.23$
  • B
    $7.023$
  • C
    $7.073$
  • D
    $7.73$

The circular divisions of a screw gauge are $50$. It moves $0.5 \ mm$ on the main scale in one rotation. When the diameter of a wire is measured,the main scale reading is $3.5 \ mm$ and the circular scale reading is $32$. If the zero error (positive) in the screw gauge is $0.06 \ mm$,then the diameter of the wire is:

In a vernier callipers,$10$ divisions of vernier scale coincide with $9$ divisions of main scale. One division of main scale is of $0.1 \ cm$. If in the measurement of inner diameter of a cylinder,the zero of the vernier scale lies between $1.3 \ cm$ and $1.4 \ cm$ of the main scale and the $2^{\text{nd}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division,then the diameter will be: (in $cm$)

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 $cm$)

$A$ screw gauge gives the following reading when used to measure the diameter of a wire.
Main scale reading : $0 \ mm$
Circular scale reading : $52 \ divisions$
Given that $1 \ mm$ on the main scale corresponds to $100$ divisions of the circular scale. The diameter of the wire from the above data is: (in $cm$)

In a vernier callipers,$50$ vernier scale divisions are equal to $48$ main scale divisions. If one main scale division $= 0.05 \ mm$,then the least count of the vernier callipers is . . . . . . $mm$.
