    Assertion (A): Backlash error can be minimised by turning the screw in one direction only when fine adjustment is done. Reason (R ): Backlash error is caused due to wear and tear or loose- fittings in screws.

    The density of solid ball is to be determined in an experiment the diameter of the ball is measured with a screw gauge, whose pitch is 0.5 mm and there are 50 divisions on the circular scale. The reading on the relative error of 2%, the relative percentage error error in the density is

    Assertion (A): In searle's experiment, it is better to start the experiment with some initial load on the hanger. Reason (R ): In searle's experiment, it is desirable that wire is straight and no kinks are there.

    How many number of wires are used in Searl's experiment for determining Young's modulus of elasticity ?
