The vernier scale of a travelling microscope has $50$ divisions which coincide with $49$ main scale divisions. If each main scale division is $0.5 \ mm$,calculate the minimum inaccuracy in the measurement of distance. (in $mm$)

$A$ student measured the length of a rod and wrote it as $3.50\;cm$. Which instrument did he use to measure it?

Using a screw gauge with a pitch of $0.1 \ cm$ and $50$ divisions on its circular scale,the thickness of an object is measured. How should the measurement be correctly recorded (in $cm$)?

In a screw gauge,the zero of the main scale reference line coincides with the fifth division of the circular scale when two studs are in contact. There are $100$ divisions on the circular scale and the pitch of the screw gauge is $0.1 \text{ mm}$. When the diameter of a sphere is measured,the reading of the main scale is $5 \text{ mm}$ and the $50^{th}$ division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line of the main scale. The diameter of the sphere is . . . . . . $\text{mm}$.

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: In a vernier callipers,one vernier scale division is always smaller than one main scale division.
Statement $II$: The vernier constant is given by one main scale division multiplied by the number of vernier scale division.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

$A$ tiny metallic rectangular sheet has a length and breadth of $5 \ mm$ and $2.5 \ mm$,respectively. Using a specially designed screw gauge which has a pitch of $0.75 \ mm$ and $15$ divisions on the circular scale,you are asked to find the area of the sheet. In this measurement,the maximum fractional error will be $\frac{x}{100}$ where $x$ is . . . . . .
