The least count of a vernier callipers is 0.0025 cm and it has an error of + 0.0125 cm. While measuring the length of a cylinder, the reading on the main scale is 7.55 cm, and the 12th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale. Calculate the corrected length.
उत्तर
Least count (L.C.) = 0.0025 cm
Error = +0.0125 cm
Correction = – (Error) = – (+0.0125) = – 0.0125 cm
Main scale reading = 7.55 cm
Vernier scale division (V.S.D.) coinciding with main scale = 12th
Length recorded = Main scale reading + L.C. × V.S.D.
= 7.55 + 0.0025 × 12
= 7.55 + 0.0300
= 7.58 cm
Correct length = Length recorded + Correction
= 7.58 + (−0.0125)
= 7.58 – 0.0125
= 7.5675 cm
= 7.567 cm
