In a Screw Gauge, fifth division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line when the ratchet is closed. There are $50$ divisions on the circular scale, and the main scale moves by $0.5 \,{mm}$ on a complete rotation. For a particular observation the reading on the main scale is $5\, {mm}$ and the $20^{\text {th }}$ division of the circular scale coincides with reference line. Calculate the true reading. (in ${mm}$)

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 $.......cm$

A screw gauge with a pitch of $0.5 \ mm$ and a circular scale with $50$ divisions is used to measure the thickness of a thin sheet of Aluminium. Before starting the measurement, it is found that wen the two jaws of the screw gauge are brought in contact, the $45^{th} $division coincides with the main scale line and the zero of the main scale is barely visible. What is the thickness of the sheet (in $mm$) if the main scale reading is $0.5\ mm$ and the $25^{th}$ division coincides with the main scale line
