Consider a Vernier callipers in which each $1 \ cm$ on the main scale is divided into $8$ equal divisions and a screw gauge with $100$ divisions on its circular scale. In the Vernier callipers,$5$ divisions of the Vernier scale coincide with $4$ divisions on the main scale and in the screw gauge,one complete rotation of the circular scale moves it by two divisions on the linear scale. Then:
$(A)$ If the pitch of the screw gauge is twice the least count of the Vernier callipers,the least count of the screw gauge is $0.01 \ mm$.
$(B)$ If the pitch of the screw gauge is twice the least count of the Vernier callipers,the least count of the screw gauge is $0.005 \ mm$.
$(C)$ If the least count of the linear scale of the screw gauge is twice the least count of the Vernier callipers,the least count of the screw gauge is $0.01 \ mm$.
$(D)$ If the least count of the linear scale of the screw gauge is twice the least count of the Vernier callipers,the least count of the screw gauge is $0.005 \ mm$.
$(A)$ If the pitch of the screw gauge is twice the least count of the Vernier callipers,the least count of the screw gauge is $0.01 \ mm$.

In a screw gauge,$5$ complete rotations of the screw cause it to move a linear distance of $0.25\, cm$. There are $100$ circular scale divisions. The thickness of a wire measured by this screw gauge gives a reading of $4$ main scale divisions and $30$ circular scale divisions. Assuming negligible zero error,the thickness of the wire is (in $, cm$)
If $50$ Vernier divisions are equal to $49$ main scale divisions of a travelling microscope and one smallest reading of main scale is $0.5 \,mm$, the Vernier constant of travelling microscope is:
The main scale of a vernier caliper reads in millimeters and its vernier scale is divided into $8$ divisions,which coincide with $5$ divisions of the main scale. When the two jaws of the instrument touch each other,the zero of the vernier scale coincides with the zero of the main scale. $A$ rod is placed between the two jaws. It is observed that the zero of the vernier scale lies just to the left of the $36^{th}$ division of the main scale and the fourth division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The measured value is .......... $cm$.

View SolutionIn 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 $cm$)
