प्रश्न
The main scale of vernier callipers has 10 divisions in a centimetre and 10 vernier scale divisions coincide with 9 main scale divisions. Calculate
- pitch
- L.C. of vernier callipers.
उत्तर
Main scale divisions of vernier callipers in one centimetre = 10
Pitch = `"Unit of main scale"/"Number of divisions in the unit"`
= `1/10` cm
= 0.1 cm
Least count = `"Pitch"/"No. of vernier scale divisions"`
= `0.1/10` cm
= 0.01 cm
