प्रश्न
State the formula for calculating the pitch of screw.
उत्तर
Pitch of screw
= `"Distance moved by thimble on main scale"/"Number of rotations of thimble"`
E.g. If 5 mm is the distance moved by the thimble on the main scale in 5 rotations then,
Pitch = `(5 "mm")/5` = 1 mm

A boy uses a vernier callipers to measure the thickness of his pencil. He measures it to be 1.4 mm. If the zero error of vernier callipers is +0.02 cm, what is the correct thickness of the pencil?
(a) A vernier scale has 20 divisions. It slides over the main scale, whose pitch is 0.5 mm. If the number of divisions on the left hand of the zero of vernier on the main scale is 38 and the 18th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale, calculate the diameter of the sphere, held in the jaws of vernier callipers.
(b) If the vernier has a negative error of 0.04 cm, calculate the corrected radius of the sphere.
When does a vernier callipers has the positive error?
