Question
The least count of the main scale of a screw gauge is 1 mm.
The minimum number of divisions on its circular scale
required to measure 5 um diameter of a wire is
(a) 50
(b) 200
(c) 500
(d) 100
The pitch and the number of divisions, on the circular
scale for a given screw gauge are 0.5 mm and 100,
respectively. When the screw gauge is fully tightened
without any object, the zero of its circular scale lies 3
divisions below the m an line.
The readings of the ain scale and the circular scale for a
thin sheet ar 5.5 mm un 18 respectively, the thickness of
this sheet is
(а) 5.950 mm
(c) 5.755 mm
(b) 5.725 mm
(d) 5.740 mm
