The main scale of a vernier callipers reads 4.7 cm, the 3 rd division on the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division while measuring the length of a rod. The least count of the vernier callipers 0.1 mm. What is the length of the rod?
A vernier having a positive zero error of +5 is used to measure the side of a 2 cm cube. The length as measure by the vernier will be : (use L.C $=$ 0.01 cm)
If the length of a vernier scale having 25 divisions corresponding to 24 main scale divisions and given that 1 MSD $=$ 1 mm, then the least count of vernier calipers is
A vernier has a negative zero error. When the jaws $J _1$ and $J _2$ are brought in contact the zero of the vernier must :
In vernier callipers, if $L.C = l$ and pitch is P then $\displaystyle \frac{l}{P}$ is :
The least count of a vernier callipers is 0.01 cm. It has an error of +0.02 cm while measuring the radius of a cylinder. The main scale reading is 3.60 cm and the 8th vernier scale division coincides with main scale, then what will be the correct radius of the cylinder?
A liquid of low specific heat capacity is preferred as a thermometric liquid.
The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is Given by $ T=2\pi \sqrt { \frac { \ell }{ g } }$ where $\ell$ is about 100 cm and is known to have 1 mm accuracy. The period is about 2 s. The time of 100 oscillation is measured by a stop watch of least count 0.1 s. The percentage error in g is:-
In an experimental set up, the density of a small sphere is to be determined. The diameter of the small sphere is measured with the help of a screw gauge, whose pitch is 0.5 mm and there are 50 divisions on the circular scale reading on the main scale is 2.5 mm and that on the circular scale is 20 divisions. If the measured mass of the sphere has a relative error of 2%, the relative percentage error in the density is
A shpere has a mass of 12.2 kg $\pm $ 0.1 kg and radius 10 cm $\pm $ 0.1 cm, h=the maximum % error in density is
