Diagrams show readings of a screw gauge. figure $(i)$ shows the zero error reading when the screw gauge is closed, figure $(ii)$ the reading when the screw gauge is being used to measure the diameter of a ball-bearing. What is the diameter of the ball-bearing in $mm$? There are $50$ divisions on circular scale

In a Vernier Calipers. $10$ divisions of Vernier scale is equal to the $9$ divisions of main scale. When both jaws of Vernier calipers touch each other, the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the left of $zero$ of the main scale and $4^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly coincides with the main scale reading. One main scale division is equal to $1\,mm$. While measuring diameter of a spherical body, the body is held between two jaws. It is now observed that zero of the Vernier scale lies between $30$ and $31$ divisions of main scale reading and $6^{\text {th }}$ Vernier scale division exactly. coincides with the main scale reading. The diameter of the spherical body will be $.......cm$

There are $100$ divisions on the circular scale of a screw gauge of pitch $1 \mathrm{~mm}$. With no measuring quantity in between the jaws, the zero of the circular scale lies $5$ divisions below the reference line. The diameter of a wire is then measured using this screw gauge. It is found the $4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while $60$ divisions on circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is :
