Using a screw gauge the diameter was measured. The readings are given belwo: 0.39 mm, 0.38 mm, 0.39 mm, 0.41 mm, 0.38 mm, 0.37 m, 0.40 mm,0.39 mm. Calculate (i) the most accurate value of the diameter (ii) the relative error and (iii) percentage error.

A screw gauge with a pitch of 1 mm has 100 divisions on its circular scale. What it is used to measure the diameter of a thin wire, the main scale reading is 3 mm and the circular scale reading is 45. If D is the diameter of the wire in mm, then find the value of D.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1 mm and there are 100 divisions on the circular head. While measuring the diameter of a wire, the main scale reads 3 mm and the 55th division is in line with the base line. Find the diameter of the wire. Assume that the screw gauge is free from zero error.

When a screw gauge of least count 0.01 mm is used to measure the diameter of a wire, the reading on the sleeve is found to be 1 mm and the reading on the thimble is found to be 27 divisions.What is the diameter of the wire in cm ?

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1 mm and its circular scale has 100 divisions. In measurement of the diameter of a wire, the main scale reads 2 mm and 45th mark on circular scale coincides with the base line. Find the diameter of the wire.

A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly 2m long, by Searle's method. In a partcular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be 0.8mm with an uncertainty of +- 0.05mm at a load of exactly 1.0kg , the student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 04mm with an uncertainty of +-0.01mm . Take g=9.8m//s^(2) (exact). the Young's modulus obtained from the reading is

When a screw gauge of least count 0.01 mm is used to measure the diameter of a wire, the reading on the sleeve is found to be 1 mm and the reading on the thimble is found to be 27 divisions.If the zero error + 0.005 cm, what is the correct diameter ?

The circular scale head of a screw gauge is divided into 200 divisions and move 1 mm ahead in one revolution. The diameter of the wire, when the pitch scale reading shows 6mm (when the wire is firmly held between the studes) and 45^(th) division on circular scale coincides with the reference line.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1mm and its cap is divided into 100 divisions. When this screw gauge is used to measure the diameter of a wire, then main scale reading is 2 mm and 58^(th) division of circular scale coincides with the main scale. There is no zero error in the screw gage. Then the diameter of the wire is
