A spectrometer gives the following reading when used to measure the angle of a prism. Main scale reading =58.5 degree Vernier scale reading =0.9 divisions Given that 1 divisions on main scale corresponds to 0.5 degree. Total divisions on the vernier scale is 30 and match with 29 divisions of the main scale. the angle of the prism from the above data is :

In a experiment the angle are required to be measured using an instrument. 26 divisions of the main scale exactly coincide with the 30 divisions of the vernier scale . If the smallest division of the main scale is half -a-degree (=0.5^(@)) then the least count of the instrument is .
