प्रश्न
Figure shows a screw gauge in which circular scale has 100 divisions. Calculate the least count and the diameter of a wire.
उत्तर
No. of circular scale division = 100
Pitch =0.5 mm
= `(0.5 "mm")/100`
= 0.005 mm
L.C. = 0.005 mm = 0.0005 cm
Main scale reading = 4.5 mm = 0.45 cm
(C.S.D.) circular scale reading = 73 division
Observed diameter of wire = Main scale reading + L.C. × C.S.D.
= 0.45 + 0.0005 × 73
= 0.45 + 0.0365
= 0.4865 cm

What do you mean by zero error of a screw gauge? How is it accounted for?
Fig., below shows the reading obtained while measuring the diameter of a wire with a screw gauge. The screw advances by 1 division on the main scale when circular head is rotated once.
Find:
(i) Pitch of the screw gauge,
(ii) Least count of the screw gauge and
(iii) The diameter of the wire.
(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.
Define the term pitch.
When does a vernier callipers has the negative error?
