Q74 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (26 Aug Shift 1) · Physics
In a Screw Gauge, fifth division of the circular scale coincides with the reference line when the ratchet is closed. There are divisions on the circular scale, and the main scale moves by on a complete rotation. For a particular observation the reading on the main scale is and the division of the circular scale coincides with reference line. Calculate the true reading.
- A
- B
- Correct answerC
- D
Solution
L.C. of screw Gauge
Zero error of screw Gauge
Reading of screw gauge main scale reading circular scale reading Zero error
Zero error of screw Gauge
Reading of screw gauge main scale reading circular scale reading Zero error
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
