$A$ tiny metallic rectangular sheet has a length and breadth of $5 \ mm$ and $2.5 \ mm$,respectively. Using a specially designed screw gauge which has a pitch of $0.75 \ mm$ and $15$ divisions on the circular scale,you are asked to find the area of the sheet. In this measurement,the maximum fractional error will be $\frac{x}{100}$ where $x$ is . . . . . .

$(b)$ Total divisions on the circular scale $= 50$.
$(c)$ Main scale reading is $2.5\,mm$.
$(d)$ The $45^{\text{th}}$ division of the circular scale is on the pitch line.
$(e)$ The instrument has a $0.03\,mm$ negative zero error.

$A$ student performs an experiment of measuring the thickness of a slab with a vernier calliper whose $50$ divisions of the vernier scale are equal to $49$ divisions of the main scale. He noted that the zero of the vernier scale is between $7.00 \; cm$ and $7.05 \; cm$ mark of the main scale and the $23^{rd}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with the main scale. The measured value of the thickness of the given slab using the calliper will be (in $; cm$)

$A$ screw gauge of pitch $0.5\,mm$ is used to measure the diameter of a uniform wire of length $6.8\,cm$. The main scale reading is $1.5\,mm$ and the circular scale reading is $7$. The calculated curved surface area of the wire to appropriate significant figures is $......\,cm^2$. [Screw gauge has $50$ divisions on the circular scale]
