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 `"_______"`

A

0.5 cm

B

0.15 cm

C

0.5 mm

D

0.01 mm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Pitch of the screw `= (" Distance moved by spindle")/("Number of rotations ")`
`=(1 mm)/(2) =0.5 mm`
