Which devices are used for the measurement of lengths of different orders?

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

$A$ steel wire of diameter $0.5 \text{ mm}$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$ carries a load of mass $M$. The length of the wire with the load is $1.0 \text{ m}$. $A$ vernier scale with $10$ divisions is attached to the end of this wire. Next to the steel wire is a reference wire to which a main scale,of least count $1.0 \text{ mm}$,is attached. The $10$ divisions of the vernier scale correspond to $9$ divisions of the main scale. Initially,the zero of vernier scale coincides with the zero of main scale. If the load on the steel wire is increased by $1.2 \text{ kg}$,the vernier scale division which coincides with a main scale division is. . . . Take $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$ and $\pi = 3.2$.

In a vernier callipers,$20$ $VSD$ coincide with $16$ $MSD$ (each division of length $1 \text{ mm}$). The least count of the vernier callipers is: (in $\text{ cm}$)

$N$ divisions on the main scale of a vernier calliper coincide with $(N + 1)$ divisions of the vernier scale. If each division of the main scale is $a$ units,then the least count of the instrument is:
