define the pitch of a screw.

If p is the pitch of a screw then the distance by which the screw advances when given n rotations is (p)/(n).

the thimble of a screw gauge has 50 divisions .The spindle advances 1 mm when the screw is turned throught two revolutions . Then the pitch of the screw is "_______"

Define the term pitch.

A screw gauge has as many circular scale divisions as there are threads in 5 cm length of the screw . If the pitch of the screw is 0.5 mm then what is its least count ?

The least count of screw gauge is (1)/(100)mm and the pitch of the screw is 1mm . The maximum percentage error of the instrument is

Without changing the number of divisions on the circular scale, if the pitch of the screw gauge is halved, then its accuracy of measurement

A vernier calipers and a screw gauge have the same least count and zero error with the difference that the vernier calipers has positive zero error and the screw gauge has negative zero error. The number of circular scale divisions on the screw gauge is twice the number of vernier scale divisions on the vernier calipers and the pitch of the screw gauge is 1mm. If the vernier coinciding division and the circular are 3 and 97, respectively then find the number of vernier scale divisions on the vernier calipers.

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:
