For a given vernier scale, 10 main scale divisions are equal to 1 cm and 10 VSD coincide with 9MSD. The zero of the vernier is to the right of the zero of the main scale with 6VSD's coinciding MSD's, when the two jaws are in contact. The reading for the measurement of length is 4.3 cm with 2VSD's coinciding the scale graduation, then the correct length is

A

The diameter of a cylinder is measured using a vernier callipers with no zero error. It is found that zero of the vernier lies in between 5.10 cm and 5.15 cm of the main scale. The vernier has 50 divisions equivalent to 2.45 cm. The 24th division of the main scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. the diameter of the cylinder is

Least count of a vernier callipers is 0.01 cm. When the two jaws are in touch with each other, the 5^(th) division of vernier scale coinciding with the main scale lies to the left of the zero of the main scale. Further more, while measuring the diameter of the sphere, the zero mark of the vernier lies in between 2.4 cm and 2.5 cm and ther 6^(th) vernier division coincides with a main scale division.

The vernier scale of an instrument has 50 divisions which coincide with 49 main scale divisions. If each main scale division is 0.5 mm, then using the instrument what would be the minimum inaccuracy in the measurement of distance?
