In a vernier callipers,$50$ vernier scale divisions are equal to $48$ main scale divisions. If one main scale division $= 0.05 \ mm$,then the least count of the vernier callipers is . . . . . . $mm$.

$A$ travelling microscope is used to determine the refractive index of a glass slab. If $40$ divisions are there in $1 \; cm$ on the main scale and $50$ Vernier scale divisions are equal to $49$ main scale divisions,then the least count of the travelling microscope is $\dots \times 10^{-6} \; m$.

In an experiment,the angles are required to be measured using an instrument where $29$ divisions of the main scale exactly coincide with $30$ 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 main scale of a vernier caliper reads in millimeters and its vernier scale is divided into $8$ divisions,which coincide with $5$ divisions of the main scale. When the two jaws of the instrument touch each other,the zero of the vernier scale coincides with the zero of the main scale. $A$ rod is placed between the two jaws. It is observed that the zero of the vernier scale lies just to the left of the $36^{th}$ division of the main scale and the fourth division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The measured value is .......... $cm$.

$A$ student measured the diameter of a small steel ball using a screw gauge of least count $0.001 \, cm$. The main scale reading is $5 \, mm$ and the circular scale division coinciding with the reference level is $25$. If the screw gauge has a zero error of $-0.004 \, cm$,the correct diameter of the ball is: (in $, cm$)
