The diameter of a sphere is measured using a vernier caliper whose $9$ divisions of the main scale are equal to $10$ divisions of the vernier scale. The shortest division on the main scale is equal to $1 \,mm$. The main scale reading is $2 \,cm$ and the second division of the vernier scale coincides with a division on the main scale. If the mass of the sphere is $8.635 \,g$, the density of the sphere is:
- A$2.5 \,g/cm^3$
- B$1.7 \,g/cm^3$
- C$2.2 \,g/cm^3$
- D$2.0 \,g/cm^3$

View SolutionFor the determination of the refractive index of a glass slab,a travelling microscope is used whose main scale contains $300$ equal divisions equal to $15 \ cm$. The vernier scale attached to the microscope has $25$ divisions equal to $24$ divisions of the main scale. The least count $(LC)$ of the travelling microscope is (in $cm$):
In an experiment to find out the diameter of a wire using a screw gauge,the following observations were noted:
$(a)$ The screw moves $0.5\,mm$ on the main scale in one complete rotation.
$(b)$ 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.
Then the diameter of the wire is $...........\,mm$.

$A$ screw gauge has some zero error but its value is unknown. We have two identical rods. When the first rod is inserted in the screw gauge,the state of the instrument is shown by diagram $(I)$. When both the rods are inserted together in series,the state is shown by diagram $(II)$. What is the zero error of the instrument in $mm$? Given: $1 \, M.S.D. = 100 \, C.S.D. = 1 \, mm$.

View SolutionIn a screw gauge, the zero of the circular scale lies $3$ divisions above the horizontal pitch line when their metallic studs are brought in contact. Using this instrument, the thickness of a sheet is measured. If the pitch scale reading is $1 \ mm$ and the circular scale reading is $51$, then the correct thickness of the sheet is . . . . . . $mm$. [Assume least count is $0.01 \ mm$]
