प्रश्न
The wavelength of light of a particular colour is 5800 Å.
Express it in nanometre.
उत्तर
As we know, 1 nm = 10 Å
Given, Wavelength of light of particular colour = 5800 Å
Substituting the value of wavelength in the relation above, we get,
10 Å = 1 nm
1 Å = `1/10` nm
∴ 5800 Å = `1/10` × 5800 nm
∴ 5800 Å = 580 nm
Hence, wavelength of 5800 Å in nm = 580 nm.

(a) A vernier scale has 10 divisions. It slides over the main scale, whose pitch is 1.0 mm. If the number of divisions on the left hand of zero of the vernier scale on the main scale is 56 and the 8th vernier scale division coincides with the main scale, calculate the length in centimetres.
(b) If the above instrument has a negative error of 0.07 cm, calculate the corrected length.
State the formula for determining least count for a vernier callipers.
A micrometre screw gauge has a positive zero error of 7 divisions, such that its main scale is marked in 1/2 mm and the circular scale has 100 divisions. The spindle of the screw advances by 1 division complete rotation.
