In a vernier calliper, vernier scale has 20 division which matches with 19th  division of main scale. The least count of main scale is 1 mm. When two jaws of vernier calliper is in contact, zero of main scale is visible and 14th  vernier scale division matches with a main scale division. In measuring the length of iron rod by this instrument, main scale reads 35 division and 8th  division of vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. Find the ten times value of the length of rod in mm.

The main scale division and pitch of a screw gauge is 0.05 cm. Number of circular scale division in the circular scale is 100. When no object is placed between the studs then the 0 of main scale is not visible and 5th division of circular scale coincides with the main scale. When a wire is placed in between the studs then the reading on main scale is 4.6 mm and 52nd division on circular scale matches with reference line on main scale. The actual diameter of wire is

In the determination of Young's modulus Y=4MLgπld2 by using Searle's method, a wire
of length L=2 m and diameter d=0.5 mm is used. For a load, M=2.5 Kg, an extension l=0.25 mm in the length of the wire is observed. Quantities d and l are measured using a screw gauge and a micrometer, respectively. They have the same pitch of 0.5 mm. The number of divisions on their circular scale is 100. The contributions to the maximum probable error of the measurement are
