1. In a vernier calliper, N division of vernier scale 6. In the given figure zero error will be?
coincide with (N – 1) divisions of main scale (in
which 1 division represents 1mm). The least count
of the instrument in cm. should be
(1) N (2) N – 1
1 1
(3) (4)
10 N N −1
(1) Nil (2) Positive
2. A Vernier calliper has 20 divisions on the Vernier (3) Negative (4) None of these
scale, which coincide with 19 on the main scale.
The least count of the instrument is 0.1 mm. The 7. The length of a strip measured with a metre rod is
main scale divisions are of- 10.0 cm. Its width measured with a Vernier
(1) 0.5 mm (2) 1 mm calipers is 1.00 cm. The least count of the metre
(3) 2 mm (4) 1/4 mm rod is 0.1 cm and that of Vernier calipers 0.01 cm.
What will be error in its area?
3. Which of the following is the most precise (1) ±0.01 cm2 (2) ±0.1 cm2
instrument for measuring length? (3) ±0.11 cm2 (4) ± 0.2 cm2
(1) Metre rod of least count 0.1 cm
(2) Vernier calipers of least count 0.01 cm 8. The least count of Vernier calipers is 0.1 mm. The
(3) Screw gauge of least count 0.001 cm main scale reading before the zero of the Vernier
(4) None of these scale is 10 and the zero division of the vernier
scale coincides with the main scale division. Given
4. Suppose the circular scale is divided in to 100 that each main scale division is 1 mm, the
equal parts and the pitch of the screw is 1 mm, measured value should be expressed as:
calculate least count? (1) 0.01 cm (2) 1 cm
(1) .002 cm (2) .003 cm (3) 1.0 cm (4) 1.00 cm
(3) .001 cm (4) .004 cm
9. Relative accuracy of a screw gauge can be
5. In the given figure zero error will be? increased:
(1) by increasing the size of pitch
(2) by increasing the number of divisions on the
circular scale
(3) by taking large number of observations
(4) by having a device free from zero error

10. A student measured the diameter of a wire using a

screw gauge with least count 0.001 cm and listed
the measurements. The correct measurement is-
(1) 5.3 cm (2) 5.32 cm
(1) Nil (2) Positive (3) 5.320 cm (4) 5.3200 cm
(3) Negative (4) None of these
