The pitch of a screw gauge is 0.5 mm and the head scale is divided into 100 parts. What is the least count of screw gauge?
टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

Pitch of the screw gauge = 0.5mm = 0.05 cm
Circular scale divisions = 100
Least Count of screw gauge = pitch of the gauge/circular scale divisions
= 0.05/100
= 0.0005cm

A micrometre screw gauge has a negative zero error of 8 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 3 divisions and the 24th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale are 20 to a centimetre and circular scale has 50 divisions, calculate

  1. pitch
  2. observed diameter.
  3. least count
  4. corrected diameter.

A micrometre screw gauge has a negative zero error of 7 divisions. While measuring the diameter of a wire the reading on the main scale is 2 divisions and 79th circular scale division coincides with baseline.
If the number of divisions on the main scale is 10 to a centimetre and circular scale has 100 divisions, calculate

  1. pitch
  2. observed diameter
  3. least count
  4. corrected diameter.

For what range of measurement is micrometre screw gauge used?
