A screw gauge with a pitch of 0.5mm and ...

A screw gauge with a pitch of `0.5mm` and a circular scale with `50` divisions is used to measure the thicknes of a thin sheet of Aluminium. Before starting the measurement, it is found that wen the jaws of the screw gauge are brought in cintact, the `45^(th)` division coincide with the main scale line and the zero of the main scale is barely visible. what is the thickness of the sheet if the main scale readind is `0.5 mm` and the `25th` division coincide with the main scale line?

A

0.80mm

B

0.70mm

C

0.50mm

D

0.75 mm

A screw gauge with a pitch of 0.5 mm and a circular scale with 50 division is used to measure the thickness of a thin sheet of aluminium. Before starting the measurement, it is found that when the two jaws of the screw are brought in constant, 45th division coincides with the main scale line and that the zero of main scale line and that the zero of main scale is barely visible. What is the thickness of the sheet, if the main scale reading is 0.5 mm and 25th division coincides with the main scalel line ?

The pitch of a screw gauge is 0.5mm and there are 50 divisions on its circular scale and one main scale division =0.5 mm. Before starting the measurement it is found that when jaws of the screw gauge are brought in contact, the zero of the circular scale lies 4 division above the reference line. when a metallic wire is placed between the jaws, five main scale divisions are clearly visible and 18^(th) division on the circular scale coincides with the reference line. the diameter of the wire is

In a screw gauge, the main scale has divisions in millimetre and circular scale has 50 divisions. The least count of screw gauge is
