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 $...... \,\times 10^{-2} \,{cm}$.

In a screw gauge,when the circular scale is given five complete rotations,it moves linearly by $2.5 \text{ mm}$. If the circular scale has $100$ divisions,the least count of the screw gauge is . . . . . . $\text{mm}$.

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 $cm$):

$A$ vernier callipers used by a student has $20$ divisions in $1\;cm$ on the main scale. $10$ vernier divisions coincide with $9$ main scale divisions. When the jaws are closed,the zero of the main scale is to the left of the zero of the vernier scale,and the $6^{th}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The student places a wooden cylinder between the jaws to measure its length. The zero of the vernier scale is to the right of the $3.20\;cm$ mark,and the $8^{th}$ vernier division coincides with a main scale division. When measuring the thickness (diameter) of the cylinder,the zero of the vernier scale lies to the right of the $1.50\;cm$ mark,and the $6^{th}$ vernier division coincides with a main scale division. The correct values of the measured length and diameter are respectively:

In a screw gauge,there are $100$ divisions on the circular scale and the main scale moves by $0.5\,mm$ on a complete rotation of the circular scale. The zero of the circular scale lies $6$ divisions below the line of graduation when two studs are brought in contact with each other. When a wire is placed between the studs,$4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while the $46^{\text{th}}$ division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is $...........\times 10^{-2}\,mm$.

In an experiment to find out the diameter of a wire using a screw gauge,the following observations were noted:
$(A)$ Screw moves $0.5 \ mm$ on the main scale in one complete rotation.
$(B)$ Total divisions on the circular scale $= 50$.
$(C)$ Main scale reading is $2.5 \ mm$.
$(D)$ $45^{\text{th}}$ division of the circular scale is in the reference line.
$(E)$ Instrument has $0.03 \ mm$ negative zero error.
Then the diameter of the wire is: (in $mm$)
