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.

$A$ screw gauge has $50$ divisions on its circular scale. The circular scale is $4$ units ahead of the pitch scale marking,prior to use. Upon one complete rotation of the circular scale,a displacement of $0.5\, mm$ is noticed on the pitch scale. The nature of zero error involved,and the least count of the screw gauge,are respectively

$A$ vernier callipers has $20$ divisions on the vernier scale, which coincide with $19$ divisions on the main scale. The least count of the instrument is $0.1 \,mm$. One main scale division is equal to $...$ $mm$.

$A$ student performs an experiment of measuring the thickness of a slab with a vernier calliper whose $50$ divisions of the vernier scale are equal to $49$ divisions of the main scale. He noted that the zero of the vernier scale is between $7.00 \; cm$ and $7.05 \; cm$ mark of the main scale and the $23^{rd}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with the main scale. The measured value of the thickness of the given slab using the calliper will be (in $; cm$)
