One main scale division of a Vernier calliper is equal to $1 \text{ mm}$ and the number of divisions on the Vernier scale is $10$. When both the jaws touch each other, the Vernier scale shifts to the left of zero of the main scale in such a way that $4^{th}$ Vernier division coincides with a division of the main scale. If the Vernier calliper measures the length of a wire to be $1 \text{ cm}$, the actual length of the wire is : (in $\text{ cm}$)

  • A
    $0.60$
  • B
    $0.96$
  • C
    $1.00$
  • D
    $1.04$
