The pitch of a screw gauge is a mm and there are 100 division on the circular scale. While measuring the diameter of a wire, the linear scale reads 1mm and 47th division on circular scale coincides with the reference line. The length of the wire is 5.6 cm. Find the curved surface area (in cm^2) of the wire in proper significant figures.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1mm and there are 100 divisions on circular scale. While measuring the diameter of a wire, the linear scale reads 1 mm and 47th division on circular scale coincides with reference line. The length of the wire is 5.6 cm. Find the curved surface area of the wire in cm^2 to correct number of significant figures.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1mm and its cap is divided into 100 divisions. When this screw gauge is used to measure the diameter of a wire, then main scale reading is 2 mm and 58^(th) division of circular scale coincides with the main scale. There is no zero error in the screw gage. Then the diameter of the wire is

A screw gauge has 1.0mm pitch and 200 divisions on the ciruclar scale. The least count of the instrument is

A screw gauge has least count of 0.01 mm and there are 50 divisions in its circular scale: The pitch of the screw gauge is:

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1 mm with 100 divisions on the circular scale. For a given wire, the linear scale reads 2 mm and 64th divisions on the circular scale coincides with the reference line. If the length of the wire is 3.5 cm, find the volume in cm^(3) ?

Answer the following : (a) You are given a tread and a metre scale. How will you estimate the diameter of the thread ? (b) A screw gauge has a pitch of 1.0 mm and 200 divisions on the circular scale. Do you think it is possible to increase the accuracy of the screw gauge arbitratily by increasing the number of divisions on the circular scale ? (c) The mean diameter of a thin brass rod is to be measured by vernier callipers. Why is a set of 100 measurements of the diameter expected to yield a more reliable estimate than a set of 5 measurement only ?
