In a screw gauge,the zero of the circular scale lies $3$ divisions above the horizontal pitch line when their metallic studs are brought in contact. Using this instrument,the thickness of a sheet is measured. If the pitch scale reading is $1 \ mm$ and the circular scale reading is $51$,then the correct thickness of the sheet is . . . . . . $mm$. [Assume least count is $0.01 \ mm$]

  • A
    $1.50$
  • B
    $1.48$
  • C
    $1.54$
  • D
    $1.51$

In an experiment,the angles are required to be measured using an instrument in which $29$ divisions of the main scale exactly coincide with the $30$ divisions of the vernier scale. If the smallest division of the main scale is half a degree $(=0.5^{\circ})$,then the least count of the instrument is

The internal and external radii of a hollow cylinder are measured with the help of a vernier callipers. Their values are $(4.23 \pm 0.01) \, cm$ and $(3.87 \pm 0.01) \, cm,$ respectively. The thickness of the wall of the cylinder is

In a vernier callipers,$(N+1)$ divisions of vernier scale coincide with $N$ divisions of main scale. If $1 \text{ MSD}$ represents $0.1 \text{ mm}$,the vernier constant (in $\text{cm}$) is:

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 calliper,when both jaws touch each other,the zero of the vernier scale shifts towards the left and its $4^{\text{th}}$ division coincides exactly with a certain division on the main scale. If $50$ vernier scale divisions $(VSD)$ are equal to $49$ main scale divisions $(MSD)$ and the zero error in the instrument is $0.04 \text{ mm}$,then how many main scale divisions are there in $1 \text{ cm}$?
