Length of $9 \ MSD$ of a vernier caliper are equal to $10 \ VSD$ and $1 \ MSD = 1 \ mm$. For measuring the length of a rod,the reading on the main scale is $6.4 \ cm$ and the $8^{th}$ division on the vernier scale is in line with a marking on the main scale. If there is no zero error,find the length of the rod: (in $cm$)

  • A
    $6.23$
  • B
    $6.58$
  • C
    $6.48$
  • D
    $6.83$

The pitch and the number of divisions on the circular scale for a given screw gauge are $0.5\,mm$ and $100$ respectively. When the screw gauge is fully tightened without any object,the zero of its circular scale lies $3$ divisions below the mean line. The readings of the main scale and the circular scale for a thin sheet are $5.5\,mm$ and $48$ respectively. The thickness of this sheet is: (in $,mm$)

The diagrams show readings of a screw gauge. Figure $(i)$ shows the zero error reading when the screw gauge is closed,and figure $(ii)$ shows 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 the circular scale.

For the determination of the refractive index of a glass slab,a travelling microscope is used whose main scale contains $300$ equal divisions equal to $15 \ cm$. The vernier scale attached to the microscope has $25$ divisions equal to $24$ divisions of the main scale. The least count $(LC)$ of the travelling microscope is (in $cm$):

There are $100$ divisions on the circular scale of a screw gauge of pitch $1 \,mm$. 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 that $4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while $60$ divisions on the circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is: (in $\,mm$)

The diameter of a spherical bob is measured using a vernier callipers. $9$ divisions of the main scale,in the vernier callipers,are equal to $10$ divisions of vernier scale. One main scale division is $1\, {mm}$. The main scale reading is $10\, {mm}$ and $8^{\text{th}}$ division of vernier scale was found to coincide exactly with one of the main scale division. If the given vernier callipers has positive zero error of $0.04\, {cm}$,then the radius of the bob is $...... \,\times 10^{-2} \,{cm}$.
