In a screw gauge, the zero of main scale coincides with fifth division of circular scale in figure (i). The circular divisions of screw gauge are $50.$ It moves $0.5 \mathrm{mm}$ on main scale in one rotation. The diameter of the ball in figure (ii) is:

If $n^{th}$ division of main scale coincides with $(n+1{)}^{th}$ divisions of vernier scale. Given one main scale division is equal to $\text{'}a\text{'}$ units. Find the least count of the vernier.

Consider the Vernier caliper as shown, the instrument has no zero error. The length of the rod (in $\mathrm{mm}$) shown is $\alpha$, if $1 MSD=1 \mathrm{mm}$. Use $7 MSD=8 VSD$. Write the value of $2\alpha$.

The distance advanced by screw of a screw gauge is $2 \mathrm{m}\mathrm{m}$ in four rotation. Its cap is divided into $50$ division. There is no zero error. If the screw reads $3$ divisions on the main scale and $32$ divisions on the cap, then the diameter of the wire is (in $\mathrm{\mu m}$)-

_____ helps in measuring holes, the width of pipes, the circumference of metal beads.

Write the usage of Vernier Calipers in Science Labs.

What is the function of vernier calliper?

What is zero error and types of zero errors in vernier scale?

The zero error is equal to the length between the zero mark of the main scale and the zero mark of the vernier scale.

A vernier callipers has its main scale graduated in $\mathrm{mm}$ and $10$ divisions on its vernier scale are equal in length to $9 \mathrm{mm}$. When the two jaws are in contact, the zero of vernier scale is ahead of zero of main scale and $4^{\mathrm{th}}$ division of vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. Find the zero error of the vernier callipers.

Which of the following is incorrect statement regarding selection criteria of measuring instruments ?

The distance advanced by screw of a screw gauge is $2 \mathrm{m}\mathrm{m}$ in four rotation. Its cap is divided into $50$ division. There is no zero error. If the screw reads $3$ divisions on the main scale and $32$ divisions on the cap, then the diameter of the wire is (in $\mathrm{mm}$)-

End correction is a correction in : 

The end correction is :

$1 \mathrm{cm}$ of main scale of a vernier callipers is divided into $10 \mathrm{divisions}$. The vernier scale had ___, so that least count of the callipers is $0.005 \mathrm{cm}$.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 0.5 mm and there are 100 divisions on it circular scale. The instrument reads +2 circular scale divisions when nothing is put in between its jaws, when a wire is measured using this screw gauge main scale reads 3 pitch, while 31st division on the circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is :

 The diameter of a cylinder is measured using a vernier calipers with no zero error. It is found that the zero of the vernier scale lies between $5.10 \mathrm{cm}$ and $5.15 \mathrm{cm}$ of the main scale. The vernier scale has $50$  divisions equivalent to $2.54 \mathrm{cm}$. The ${24}^{\mathrm{th}}$ division of the vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The diameter of the cylinder is,
