A vernier callipers has 20 divisions on the vernier scale which coincide with 19 divisions on the main scale. The least count of the instrument is 0.1 mm. The main scale divisions are of

The side of a cube is measured by vernier callipers ( 10 divisions of a vernier scale coincide with 9 divisions of main scale, where 1 division of main scale is 1mm ). The main scale reads 10mm and first division of vernier scale coincides with the main scale. Mass of the cube is 2.736 g . find the density of the cube in appropriate significant figures.

Consider a Vernier callipers in which each 1cm on the main scale is divided into 8 equal divisions and a screw gauge with 100 divisions in its circular scale. In the Vernier callipers, 5 divisions of the Vernier scale coincide with 4 divisions on the scale and in the screw gauge, one complete rotation of the circular scale moves it by two divisions on the linear scale. Then :
