The internal and external diameters of a hollow cylinder measured with vernier calipers are $(5.73 \pm 0.01) \text{ cm}$ and $(6.01 \pm 0.01) \text{ cm}$ respectively. Then the thickness of the cylinder wall is

  • A
    $(0.28 \pm 0.01) \text{ cm}$
  • B
    $(0.28 \pm 0.02) \text{ cm}$
  • C
    $(0.14 \pm 0.02) \text{ cm}$
  • D
    $(0.14 \pm 0.01) \text{ cm}$

The diameter of a wire is measured with a screw gauge having a least count of $0.01\;mm$. Which of the following correctly expresses the diameter?

In a screw gauge, when the circular scale is given five complete rotations, it moves linearly by $2.5 \text{ mm}$. If the circular scale has $100$ divisions, the least count of the screw gauge is . . . . . . $\text{mm}$.

The main scale division of a vernier caliper is $1 \ mm$. The vernier scale divisions are in an arithmetic progression $(A.P.)$; the $1^{st}$ division is $0.95 \ mm$, the $2^{nd}$ division is $0.90 \ mm$, and so on. When an object is placed between the jaws of the vernier caliper, the zero of the vernier scale lies between $3.1 \ cm$ and $3.2 \ cm$, and the $4^{th}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The reading of the vernier caliper is .......... $cm$.
